Powering Education

Today's school systems are under tremendous pressure to do more with less. With decreased funding, increased requirements and rising costs in every area of operations, the pressure to make budget without detracting from education is one of the most complex issues that today's administrators face.

We understand that managing your energy spend in a volatile market, while being responsible for many other things, can be especially challenging. Direct Energy Business works with K-12 school districts, community colleges and universities across the country to offer guidance and innovative choices that aren't available through your utility.

Budget Control
Our Fixed Price Product for electricity and natural gas, can help you control your energy budget with a single, locked-in rate that doesn't change for the length of your agreement with us.

Strength in Numbers
We help school districts, energy consortiums and other groups pool energy usage through aggregation programs, which can help you access more competitive rates and other benefits usually available only to high-volume consumers.

Flexibility
PowerPortfolio^®, our industry-leading portfolio-style product is a unique offering for energy procurement. High-use customers with at least 2MW annual usage (or aggregations with combined usage at that level) can work with our Portfolio Strategists to develop a custom mix of fixed and market-based energy purchases.
