FAQs
BUE can offer natural gas and electricity supply procurement in any applicable deregulated state, as shown on the map below.
We can offer Demand Response services across the PJM, New York (NYISO), Texas (ERCOT), California (CAISO), New England (NE ISO) and Ontario, Canada (IESO) markets.
In deregulated states, third-party suppliers (non-utility companies) can supply natural gas and electricity to end-users, giving consumers the opportunity to buy their energy from the best source. Your bill is divided into two major parts: supply and delivery.
By selecting a qualified BUE supplier, you have exactly the same assurances in regard to receiving your electricity and natural gas. If the power goes out, you can still call your utility to come fix it. You will continue to receive the same reliable service you’re accustomed to and will in no way be penalized by your utility for switching.
If you receive your full energy supply requirement from your utility company, you are charged a rate based on the prevailing cost of electricity and gas plus monthly adjustments including administrative charges. These costs are passed directly to you (however, the utility has no profit on the supply portion of the bill).
Third-party suppliers can use purchasing strategies not available to the utility, allowing them to provide options your utility cannot.
No, we’ve selected suppliers that work with your utility to ensure a smooth transition between energy suppliers. The energy supplier will notify your utility company of your switch and you will continue to delivery your electricity and/or natural gas with no interruptions.
In most cases you will continue to receive a single bill from your utility company with the supply charges listed separately. BUE requires that all details of the energy supplier’s offer be provided and displayed to you.
BUE works and negotiates for you to receive the best possible rates from bidding third-party suppliers. All suppliers serving your area have been reviewed and pre-screened.
The suppliers selected to be in our procurement process are some of the biggest energy companies in the country. These suppliers must maintain a good reputation for fair business practices, good client service and our requirement to provide competitive offers.
We are confident in our ability to bring you the best rates possible and you aren’t obligated to accept any offer if you are dissatisfied for whatever reason.
