Questions, answered
How brokering works, what it costs, and what switching actually changes. Still stuck? Talk to an advisor.
The basics
What a broker is and how the relationship works.
What does an energy broker actually do?
We compare supply offers across hundreds of licensed suppliers, negotiate rate and contract terms on your behalf, and manage your renewals — so you get a competitive rate without shopping the market yourself.
Is this the same as switching utilities?
No. Your local utility still delivers the energy and handles outages. We only change the supply portion of your bill — the part that's open to competition in deregulated markets.
Who can use Premier Energy Partners?
Businesses and organizations in deregulated electricity and natural-gas markets — from a single storefront to multi-site commercial and industrial portfolios, plus public-sector and nonprofit facilities. Enter your ZIP in the quote tool to confirm your area qualifies.
Cost & savings
What it costs you, and how savings work.
How does Premier Energy Partners get paid?
Suppliers pay us a standard placement fee when you sign a contract we broker. You pay nothing extra, and we show you the rate and term up front so the comparison stays honest.
Are the savings estimates guaranteed?
Estimates from our tools are illustrative, based on representative market rates. Your formal quote — with the exact supplier rate and term — comes after we review your usage and current bill.
What information do you need from me?
Your ZIP, current supply rate, and monthly usage (kWh or therms) is enough for an estimate. For a binding quote, a recent bill helps us read your exact rate, utility, and contract end date.
Switching & contracts
What changes, and what doesn't.
Will my power or gas be interrupted when I switch?
No — there's zero interruption. The switch happens on the supply side of your account; the same lines and the same utility keep delivering with identical reliability.
Fixed or variable rate — which should I choose?
A fixed rate locks your supply price for the contract term — predictable, and our most common recommendation. A variable rate can start lower but moves with the market. We'll walk you through the trade-off for your usage pattern.
What happens when my contract ends?
We track your end date and re-shop the market before it arrives, so you never roll onto a costly month-to-month default rate. You stay in control — we just bring you the next best option.
Is my personal data safe?
We use your information only to prepare your quote and manage your contract. We never sell your data, and you can unsubscribe from market emails at any time.
