CHAMBER LAUNCHES GUARANTEED SAVINGS PROGRAM FOR ELECTRIC GENERATION
Exclusive deal with FirstEnergy Solutions locks in electric discount for local businesses

The Erie Regional Chamber and Growth Partnership has secured for its members an electric discount program with FirstEnergy Solutions (FES), a leading electric generation supplier based in Akron, OH. According to the terms, participating small businesses will receive guaranteed savings on electric generation from January 2011 through May 2012, always paying less than the electric utility’s price for generation. This program is a limited time offer and is scheduled to end on June 30, or once the program is fully subscribed, whichever occurs first.

ERCGP Vice President Claudia Thornburg said the savings for small businesses will be significant.

“Growing business is our business at the Erie Regional Chamber and this is just one way we provide valuable savings to members," said Thornburg. "Securing a preferred rate on electric generation will help Erie area businesses control costs and free up capital for reinvestment."

“We are pleased to offer members of the Erie Regional Chamber and Growth Partnership these significant savings,” said Arthur Yuan, vice president of Sales & Marketing for FES. “This opportunity can help chamber member businesses achieve real savings on their electric generation costs over the next two years.”

The discount for Erie businesses was procured through ChamberChoice and OnDemand Energy – the authorized energy management team for the Erie Regional Chamber.
