TEA Solutions, a sister company of The Energy Authority, was created to serve community-owned utilities such as cooperatives. “This agreement marks an important strategic step toward United Power’s new energy future,” stated Mark A. Gabriel, United Power President and CEO. “United Power has been dedicated to building a new network of service providers and energy sources for the planned exit from our current power supplier next spring. This marks a vital step in the process, and we are proud to partner with a firm that has the expertise and experience to help us be successful in this significant endeavor.” “We are honored to be chosen by United Power to be their strategic partner,” stated Joanie Teofilo, President and CEO of The Energy Authority and TEA Solutions. “We were created to support community-owned utilities and look forward to working with United Power to achieve its mission to provide efficient and reliable power to its members.” United Power’s exit from its current wholesale power supply contract will be complete May 1, 2024. The cooperative is in the process of securing both the power contracts and strategic expertise necessary to capitalize on the changing energy marketplace, which in turn, will bring considerable value to its members. “We are working to provide not only reliable power, but power that is more economically priced for our members,” stated Gabriel. “As the energy market expands west, we will be able to take advantage of available resources including clean, renewable energy generation, and increase our investment in local energy generation sources.” To learn more about how United Power is moving into a new energy future, visit Power Supply.
