Energy choice continues to benefit companies in Washington, DC. Currently restaurants and other users of electricity can purchase and lock in rates that up to 20% lower than Pepco's published rates. Companies with a sustainability mindset are buying renewable (wind and other sources) electricity at prices lower than Pepco's standard offer.

A stark warning though to DC utility rate payers, if you are not paying attention to your current contract expiration date, you need to do so. Missing that renewal date could add thousands of dollars to your yearly energy spend. Feel free to call Electric Advisors to learn more about what some DC clients refer to as "Pepco Hell" and how you can avoid it.
