As you may have noticed, electric and natural gas costs have been steadily rising. We are reaching out to our members to help them understand how they are impacted by the rising rates and provide opportunities to save.
Unfortunately, we continue to see members paying higher than market rates without realizing it. The Chamber Energy Program will perform free bill reviews to check your rate and make sure you are not paying too much.
Whether you are on the standard utility rate, in a government aggregation program, or are in a supply contract, we encourage you to check your rate and make sure you are not overpaying.
Simply email your electric and natural gas bill to billreview@ceateam.com. If fax is more convenient, please fax them to (330) 721-8111 Attn Chamber Energy Program, and Community Energy Advisors will check your rates.
For questions about the Chamber Energy Program, contact Community Energy Advisors at (330) 208-2082.
