IDT Energy of New York wants you to understand how competition empowers consumers of electricity and natural gas. Here are a few more issues to consider when investigating the best ESCO for your own particular needs. 1. The ESCO might be able to help you with any special needs you might have. Perhaps you can save money if that ESCO has any special services which address your particular needs. 2. Are you concerned about how electricity is generated, for example, would you choose alternative forms of electricity production such as renewable, green energy? Some ESCOs, including IDT Energy offers an option for its customers to get some of their electricity from renewable sources. (Visit IDT Energy’s green energy page for more information.) 3. How the bill is sent to you might be a concern. Ask if your bill comes separately from the ESCO and utility, or if they come together in one bill, but clearly marked so you can tell which amount comes from which source. |
