The "dog days of summer" are upon us and time is running out to achieve the maximum savings on your electricity needs this summer. On June 1st, 2009, the electricity market in northern Ohio changed dramatically as a result of an electric auction that was conducted in May 2009. Your organization is now able to shop for the company that supplies your electricity – just as you can shop for natural gas or phone service. NEO|SO is pleased to announce that it has selected FirstEnergy Solutions as its electricity generation provider for the NEO|SO Electric Savings Program.

The NEO|SO Electricity Savings Program includes:

• Amazing pricing with guaranteed savings: 5.75% off your electric generation through May 2011.
• Comfort: The NEO|SO Electricity Program was created with the input of one of Ohio’s most recognized energy attorneys, Northern Ohio’s leading energy consultants, and approximately 20 local governments, higher education institutions, and not-for-profit organizations.
• Service: NEO|SO participants will have access to dedicated customer care representatives through a special NEO|SO toll free enrollment and inquiry line.
• Education: NEO|SO participants will have access to exclusive energy market update events, information, and resources through this program.
• Information: NEO|SO will provide participating organizations with an annual savings report detailing the value received through this program
