Mayo County Council and Westport Town Council are among the record 27 local authorities that have switched to independent energy provider Energia for their unmetered electricity supply since this market was opened last year.
The unmetered electricity supply market covers an important number of local authority services such as public lighting. It differs from the conventional energy market by the fact that no meter is used to record the energy units consumed, so local authorities and state agencies can avail of Energia’s competitive energy offerings and significant discounts.
“The notable savings that we can offer local authorities on unmetered electricity costs are undoubtedly good news, given the considerable pressure that their budgets are under in the current economic environment,” said Gary Ryan, sales and marketing director with Energia.
