As a certified energy auditor and Member of the Mayor’s Energy Task Force, Spence Faxon saved clients money through his own proven systematic approach to energy conservation. By evaluating the equipment of a building - like its boilers - and looking for less expensive energy sources to get the best rates, clients like Hilcrest Gardens saved $142,420 in natural gas costs in 1983 alone. In 1989 Energy Alliances became the regional agent for Consolidated Fuel Corporation of Houston, Texas. The 90's As pipeline companies like Peoples Gas Light & Coke Co. in Chicago and Cincinnati Gas & Electric are forced to open their gas transmission lines for business customers, Energy Alliances began supplying natural gas on both systems and was the largest on the CG&E system and established itself as the leader in the Firm Transport (FT) program that guarantees gas deliveries 24/7. After the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission passed an order requiring the unbundling of pipeline sales, Energy Alliances offered an array of new services to benefit the end user and moved to larger offices in Sycamore Township to better serve its customers. CG&E enlisted Spence as a teacher of seminars on utility rates and through its Non-Profit Energy Management Program (NEMP) enlisted Energy Alliances to perform energy audits throughout the area. Today Energy Alliances has positioned itself as a leader in the energy consulting field and remains one of the largest independent natural gas suppliers (through Integrys Energy Services, Inc.) on the Duke Energy system in Southern Ohio. Energy Alliances now provides electric generation service to businesses throughout the area as well.
Energy Alliances
currently serves entire communities in Northern Ohio and more communities
throughout
the greater Cincinnati area on natural gas aggregation than anyone
else. Residents of
Green Township who enrolled in their community natural gas
aggregation saved more than $1 million in energy costs in the first
year of their program. Energy Alliances assists communities in
passing
Aggregation, giving them authority to begin the certification
process on the Duke system. |
