1) Wholesale electricity prices increased almost 21 % in 2011 compared to 10 year low levels reached in 2012 due to the recession.
2) Despite this increase in 2012 prices still remained roughly 42 % lower than 2008 when the energy markets went through the roof due to the Speculative Spike when oil and NG hit record levels.
3) While natural gas rates remained moderate as supply levels reached record highs, record high demand levels coupled with regional changes in production and infrastructural changes along key pipeline routes across the country impacted Natural Gas prices. We saw increases of 9%-27% across the US.

What does this mean to you as a business owner or someone trying to control costs in this continuing difficult economy?

Energy prices are on the rise again.period.

Gasoline prices are already at almost record levels reached back in 2008 when Crude Oil hit an all-time high. Recent increased tension in the Middle East draws additional concerns as to how much higher oil and gasoline prices will continue to rise.

A direct result has contributed to a dramatic increase in costs for goods and services across the board. Food prices continue to increase at a rapid rate (fruit and vegetable prices have nearly doubled in the past 18 months) and additional industries that rely on petroleum products such as transportation and plastics are being forced to increase costs at the wholesale level that directly impact businesses and residential customers alike.

What is the solution?

Energy Advisory Group or EAG is an energy consultant who can pro-actively manage your Natural Gas energy costs utilizing our full compliment of products and services and relationships with multiple top tier providers.

Most of our commercial clients under contract through 3rd Qtr 2012 through 2nd/3rd Qtr 2013 are extending energy contracts due to low rates available and increased projected volatility between now and the end of their existing contracts. In most cases we are lowering their rate significantly in markets where the utility rate is on the rise.

Utility rates are based on current market conditions and recent posted rates have increased in virtually EVERY de-regulated state in the US. If your business is not protected you are risking exposure to much higher energy prices in the months and years to come.

Rates typically increase in the summer and if we have a weather event similar to Katrina enter The Gulf of Mexico late this summer energy prices could actually double in a very short period of time.

The majority of the gas supplied to the residents of California comes from out-of-state gas basins. Some examples are the ones from Southwest which account for 40% of the natural gas supplied, Canada with a percentage of 20%, Rocky Mountains 20%, and the rest (approximately 20%) belongs to local basins, so therefore the natural gas supplier is located in California.
When referring to people that have the possibility of choosing their natural gas supplier we are referring to the ?core? consumers, which are the residential and small commercial customers. They account for 40% of consumers. The other category is that of industrial consumers which are also known as noncore consumers.

Natural Gas Supplier Competition

The energy deregulation applied in California has offered businesses and core consumers alike the possibility of analyzing the gas market and choosing the natural gas supplier with the lowest rate. It is an amazing opportunity to be able to choose the lowest price to pay.
However, most people stick to their original provider to provide them with gas and most of them do not purchase natural gas from independent gas suppliers. Many times the default rate supplied by their current provider is much higher than what is actually available to the consumer. This issue as a Energy Consultant is that we can assist companies in lowering their energy expense by offering them options to reduce their bills. These companies are benefiting most from deregulation, which has introduced competition into the market place, which in turn benefits the consumer. When energy companies compete for your business in a competitive environment, you will always save money.

A natural gas supplier focuses its attention on minimizing the cost of delivering gas so that they are able to offer gas to businesses at a lower rate than other gas suppliers acting on the market.

Choose the Best Natural Gas Supplier

The restructuring process, which has happened due to deregulation in California, has benefited consumers on the whole (and especially businesses), which gives consumers the possibility of contracting the services of a non-utility natural gas supplier. Therefore, we are talking about a free market where the price for gas is calculated based on supply and demand.
The deregulation that took place in California is good for businesses who now have the possibility of choosing their natural gas supplier and for the alternate gas producers as well, who have the possibility of offering their services in a new market. visit www.energyadvisorygroup.net fore more information.
