Community Choice Energy: What Does It Mean For You?
Many local governments are adopting community choice energy options for their residents. But, what exactly will this mean for your community?
Local governments ensure that public utility markets remain competitive and that citizens have fair options. However, local “natural” monopolies form, with only a few key utility companies dominating a region.
Sometimes this is in the best interest of citizens, but sometimes it can end up serving the best interests of a utility company’s profits or an elected official’s campaign. Utility companies must use legislative tracking technology to monitor their local city council agenda. Know when business-altering decisions are going to be made in your market. Use Agenda Discovery to monitor keywords like “solar power” and “sewage” in local government agendas.
