CEDC Announces Energy Savings Program
Lancaster, NH –Coos Economic Development Corporation (CEDC), a non-profit organization that supports Coos County small businesses and fosters economic sustainability, is pleased to open enrollment for our electric savings initiative for local businesses. With the sharp increase in utility costs this year, we know businesses are struggling to figure out how to absorb these unplanned increases on top of still recovering from COVID and the rising costs of inflation.
“After numerous conversations with business and closures beginning due to utility costs, we knew we needed to get creative and start looking for solutions,” said Ericka Canales, Executive Director for CEDC. “For the average small business at 100,000 kWh annually, that’s nearly $1100 in annual savings per year.”
We have partnered with Freedom Energy Logistics, a New Hampshire based company, to assist with our initiative in Coos County for both commercial and industrial usage. Founded in 2006, Freedom Energy Logistics offers comprehensive energy supply management and renewable energy solutions. Their team of energy experts work with and deliver energy-saving and environmentally responsible solutions, while negotiating the best rate possible with the supplier and collaborate to provide significant value.
“Freedom Energy is delighted to help empower Coos County businesses in lowering their utility overhead and stabilize energy spend for better budget certainty. There is power in numbers, and a collective action such as this enables access to great rates and a quality supplier contract.” said Thomas Carter, Freedom Energy Regional Sales Director.
