New offerings resulting in potential savings
An increase in supply in the gas market has led to reduced volatility which means that more options are now available to commercial and industrial gas users across most industry sectors in the East coast.
Sustainable Energy Solutions has been working with gas retailers to introduce alternative offerings to gas users resulting in potential savings of 30-40% compared to existing commercial plans and discounts.
