Did You Get A Charge Out Of This?

Peter Carrico was our guest speaker this week. Peter through his company GeoVend International is an electricity broker. He works with a carefully chosen group of Retail Electric Providers (REPs) that offer very competitive pricing and excellent customer service. They can guarantee the price of your electricity for terms from three months to five years, depending on your usage.

Peter explained that there are three elements to the price you pay for electricity: The delivery costs, taxes and the actual charges for the electrical power. Peter works at finding the lowest prices for the electricity...since the other two elements are pretty static and only change based on the amount of electricity your use.

Peter an other electricty brokers work mostly with commercial accounts, since that is where the largest usage resides. But they also can work with single family residences and apartment projects.
