Municipality Power Consulting

The market place for electricity and natural gas is changing rapidly. Most of these changes involve deregulation and the resulting increase in competition for customers who want lower prices and a higher level of service and reliability. These new market dynamics mandate that all service providers find the best way to serve loyal customers.

The deregulation of the electricity market is dismantling the traditional way that monopolistic utilities generate and deliver power to homes and industries. Because of the gap between incremental cost of generation and the prices charged by the regulated providers, municipal governments in large numbers are considering the merits of forming citizen owned utilities that would own and operate distribution lines or build power generation facilities. Municipalization of the utility function and the fuel requirements of self-generation are areas where Gelber has considerable expertise.

We are skilled at developing all types of energy products; some of the areas where we can help are as follows:

• Positioning strategy
