				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The past few years have been rough on the infrastructure of the Northeast. Hurricane Irene, early autumn snow and ice storms, and the massively destructive Hurricane Sandy wreaked havoc on New England, New York and New Jersey. With these storms came widespread and long-lasting power outages. It became clear to major energy providers like New Jersey’s Public Service Electric &amp; Gas Company (PSE&amp;G) that energy grid improvements are needed.</p>
<p>Upgrades to any major power system means raising a substantial amount of capital to see improvements come to fruition. PSG&amp;E has made the decision to spend $4 billion dollars to make their systems more reliable in the changing times. Weather does not wait for money to be raised, and so PSG&amp;E is starting now. Upgrades to electric substations and gas mains will be made over the next 10 years. The lengthy project has the potential to create nearly 6,000 jobs. But what does this mean for <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/natural-gas/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Fnatural-gas%2F','gas')">gas</a> and electricity pricing for PSG&amp;E customers?</p>
<p>Many lobbyists and project opponents fear that energy prices will increase substantially for residential and commercial customers affected by the improvements. A surcharge reported to be 0.84 cents per kilowatt-hour could show up on bills as construction moves forth, some critics report. For large businesses and industrial customers, a surcharge of any kind can interfere with energy budgets, requiring financial planners to fine tune and adjust the accounts to allow for higher bills. A final ruling regarding the exact timeline of the project and its funding sources has not yet been announced.</p>
<p>Energy pricing varies throughout the country and between providers, regardless of whether upgrades are being performed on the grids. Northeast energy procurement specialists like Metromedia Energy are well aware of intended construction and its implication for commercial, industrial and municipal customers. Our advice to valued clients: don’t worry about it. Our job is to find you the best gas and <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/electricity/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Felectricity%2F','electric+pricing')">electric pricing</a> available for your individual needs.</p>
<p>It’s true that the severe weather trends do not seem to be ending, and reliable power is a must. MME’s experienced consultants keep a close eye on the market to manage your energy requirements on a frequent basis – not just when the storms hit. To request a price quote or enroll in our fixed or indexed pricing plans, <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/contact-us/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Fcontact-us%2F','contact+MME')">contact MME</a> today.

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The term “green” has become a fixture in our collective vocabulary to mean environmentally friendly, sustainable and a reduction of waste. How then, does “green” translate into energy savings? “Going green” in the energy sense can span a whole host of activities in the workplace, from shutting off lights at the end of the day to installing programmable thermostats that automatically lower the ambient temperature when employees have gone home. Responsible green building is another way in which business owners can create an energy savings.</p>
<p>Natural gas and electricity, even when procured at industry-best prices by knowledgeable <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/about/why-choose-mme/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Fabout%2Fwhy-choose-mme%2F','energy+marketing+specialists')">energy marketing specialists</a>, can be expensive. Few businesses have unlimited energy budgets. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that <a href="http://www.energystar.gov/ia/business/guidelines/assess_value/off_the_charts_summer_2006.pdf?d69b-17b1" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.energystar.gov%2Fia%2Fbusiness%2Fguidelines%2Fassess_value%2Foff_the_charts_summer_2006.pdf%3Fd69b-17b1','energy+accounts+for+approximately+30+percent')">energy accounts for approximately 30 percent</a> of a commercial building’s total operating costs. Green building is a phenomenon that can reduce energy costs for business owners and bottom-line costs for investors. Responsible green building from “scratch” (building from the ground up) is achieved in a variety of ways:</p>
<ul>
<li>Specialized building design, including placement of high performance windows to allow in natural light and heat</li>
<li>Landscape design, using shrubbery to shade air conditioner units, thus reducing workload</li>
<li>Building materials, including under-floor radiant heat systems, energy-efficient roofing options and solar panels</li>
</ul>
<p>Certified green buildings can be a cost-savings for business owners and investors when it comes to purchasing energy.</p>
<p>Business owners that are already established in older offices may not be able to take advantage of green building in the same capacity as when moving into a brand new commercial building. This does not mean you aren’t able to save on energy costs long-term. As appliances approach the age of replacement, opt for ENERGY STAR equipment, heating and cooling systems, and lighting fixtures to significantly increase energy efficiency. As an independent energy procurement expert for the commercial sector, Metromedia Energy can be an invaluable resource to help you find energy savings. Our customizable energy plans include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Fixed pricing to fit all budgets</li>
<li>Index pricing that varies with market pricing</li>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The cold snap many Americans are facing in 2013 has many businesses and homeowners worrying about energy usage and increased costs. Generally, the colder it is, the more energy you use to heat your space to safe and comfortable levels. However, facilities heated with <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/natural-gas/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Fnatural-gas%2F','natural+gas')">natural gas</a> will enjoy steady energy pricing for a while longer. The reason for this reprieve? Think back to the winter of 2012.</p>
<p>Last year, many areas of the country experienced record-high temperatures accompanied by little to no snow. In fact, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration reported that 2012 was the warmest year on record since 1895, when record-keeping of this type started. As a result, heat pumps and furnaces carried a light load: barely kicking on some days.</p>
<p>Now, 2012’s reduced usage is impacting 2013 prices. The reason? Over time, reduced energy expenditures across an entire country or region leads to an overabundance of product. <strong>Natural gas inventories are currently higher than the five-year averages due to the mild winter of 2012—making gas and electricity cheaper to purchase. </strong>When natural gas stores are plentiful, even the most competitive pricing tends to remain low. However, as sub-freezing temperatures linger for months on end, natural gas prices will begin to rise as the inventories empty and demand once again climbs.</p>
<p>As a customer of <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/about/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Fabout%2F','Metromedia+Energy')">Metromedia Energy</a>, businesses and municipalities never need to worry about keeping their eye on confusing market trends and futures pricing. The job of local energy marketers like MME is to follow the energy market and secure the best energy rates possible for your home or business.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The shale gas “revolution” is a topic that carries global implications. The significance, however, can be difficult for those outside the energy industry to understand. Shale gas is a form of <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/natural-gas/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Fnatural-gas%2F','natural+gas')" target="_blank">natural gas</a> that is contained inside shale formations: rock formed from clay, quartz and other minerals.</p>
<p>The United States is densely populated with shale pockets in several states, including New York, Texas, Arkansas and Oklahoma. Releasing gas from shale formations moves the United States down the road to energy self-sufficiency. According to International Energy Agency <a href="http://www.spectator.co.uk/the-week/leading-article/8760751/a-new-world-power/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.spectator.co.uk%2Fthe-week%2Fleading-article%2F8760751%2Fa-new-world-power%2F','reports')" target="_blank">reports</a>, by 2035 the U.S. may be close to becoming entirely self-reliant for its energy needs.</p>
<p><strong>What Does Shale Gas Mean for You?</strong></p>
<p>You may ask what this shale revolution means for you—as a commercial consumer? For starters, extracting gas from shale creates a cleaner environment. Natural gas is a green form of energy, and is cleaner than coal or oil. Gas releases almost half as much carbon dioxide as coal, leading to fewer emissions. The shale gas revolution will significantly reduce America’s carbon footprint.</p>
<p>Energy pricing is another consumer benefit of the shale gas revolution. The continued derivation of shale gas makes the United States less dependent on Middle East energy resources, bringing prices down.  <a href="http://web.mit.edu/newsoffice/2012/shale-gas-revolution-report.html" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fweb.mit.edu%2Fnewsoffice%2F2012%2Fshale-gas-revolution-report.html','MIT+researchers')" target="_blank">MIT researchers</a> found that natural gas and <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/electricity/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Felectricity%2F','electricity+pricing')" target="_blank">electricity pricing</a> growth will most likely slow down through the years 2030 and 2045 with the advent of shale. The abundance of natural gas from shale and the ability to produce crude oil from the sedimentary rock will have a “game-changing” impact on global energy pricing and availability, according to <a href="http://www.timesrecordnews.com/news/2012/dec/16/shale-revolution-will-have-worldwide-effects-in/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.timesrecordnews.com%2Fnews%2F2012%2Fdec%2F16%2Fshale-revolution-will-have-worldwide-effects-in%2F','Global+Securities+Research')" target="_blank">Global Securities Research</a>.</p>
<p>Economics and politics go hand in hand when it comes to the United States’ dependency on another country’s energy resources. Although the shale gas revolution has begun, the energy shift is not yet complete.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In addition to properly managing your <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/energy-consulting/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Fenergy-consulting%2F','energy+portfolio')">energy portfolio</a>, there are a number of ways to optimize your company’s winter energy dollars. Many of these take little time and effort—and can save you thousands each year!</p>
<ol>
<li>Turn off lights and large equipment when they are not in use, and—if possible—<strong>consider using large machinery and appliances during off-peak energy hours</strong>. Shifting heavy energy use to early mornings, late nights and weekends may be an effective strategy for your business. Ask your Metromedia (MME) <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/contact-us/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Fcontact-us%2F','energy+representative')">energy representative</a> about potential savings.</li>
<li><strong>Select energy-efficient, <a href="http://www.energystar.gov/index.cfm?c=products.pr_how_earn" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.energystar.gov%2Findex.cfm%3Fc%3Dproducts.pr_how_earn','ENERGY+STAR%C2%AE-rated+products')" target="_blank">ENERGY STAR®-rated products</a></strong> when you have the option. Not only do ENERGY STAR appliances reduce your carbon footprint; they offer energy savings without sacrificing equipment performance.</li>
<li><strong>Invest in an energy audit.</strong> Energy audits are conducted by local utility companies or professional energy auditors. The auditor should (1) thoroughly inspect your business or facility; (2) conduct thermographic scans; and (3) make detailed recommendations about how to save money on <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/electricity/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Felectricity%2F','Click+here')" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Felectricity%2F','electricity')">electricity</a> and <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/natural-gas/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Fnatural-gas%2F','natural+gas')">natural gas</a>.</li>
<li><strong>Use programmable thermostats throughout your facility. </strong>Set workspace temperatures to approximately 68 degrees when in use, and lower the temperature to between 55 and 60 degrees when empty. These temperature changes can save up to 3% per degree (between 60 and 70 degrees). Thermostats should also have locking covers so employees and guests do not inadvertently adjust them.</li>
<li><strong>Make lighting adjustments. </strong>Utilizing effective task lighting rather than general, overhead lights can save between 10 and 15 percent on energy bills. You may also wish to install automatic lighting controls so lighting dollars aren’t wasted on unoccupied workspaces.</li>
<li><strong>Schedule regular heating and ventilation inspections. </strong>Proper filter replacement and equipment cleaning keeps HVAC equipment running efficiently. In addition, ductwork and pipe insulation should be regularly inspected and maintained for optimal performance.</li>
</ol>
<p>In the wake of Hurricane Sandy, many businesses are also revisiting their emergency power plans. If you do not have an outage plan in place, gather emergency supplies and discuss steps to ensure the safety of personnel and guests during the next hurricane or winter storm.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are used to purchasing your energy from a local distribution company (LDC) or local utility, you may be wondering: <em>what is an energy marketer</em>? Energy marketers specialize in procuring natural gas and electricity from wholesale suppliers. Purchasing your energy through an energy marketer saves you money—since it is delivered at discounted rate plans tailored to your usage requirements. And, if you have questions or concerns about service, the local utility can still address your needs.</p>
<p>For businesses, commercial facilities and municipalities, choosing the right energy partner can mean big savings on energy procurement. To optimize savings without sacrificing service, though, it’s important to choose an experienced company that understands your industry—and your business. The reality? Many businesses have been burned by fly-by-night energy marketers offering unattainable savings and substandard service. To protect yourself while making the most of your energy budget, keep the following tips in mind.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Reputation: </strong>Choose an <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/energy-consulting/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Fenergy-consulting%2F','energy+procurement')">energy procurement</a> partner that is reputable and has been operating for many years. MME has been a steadfast energy partner since 1995, and our legacy has procured millions in savings for small, mid-sized and large businesses and multi-site facilities.</li>
<li><strong>Sustainable Options:</strong> As energy choices evolve, most businesses are beginning to incorporate green practices into their portfolio. A good NE energy marketer should actively pursue sustainable <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/about/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Fabout%2F','energy+options')">energy options</a> in order to help you reduce your energy use and limit your carbon footprint.</li>
<li><strong>Industry Knowledge:</strong> Some energy marketers specialize in particular industries, so it’s important to ensure that your energy partner understands the needs of your sector. At Metromedia Energy, we have spent over a decade tailoring our portfolio management to a <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/about/industries-we-serve/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Fabout%2Findustries-we-serve%2F','full+range+of+industries')">full range of industries</a>, including commercial real estate, education, healthcare, hospitality, industrial, public housing, restaurant, retail, technology, transportation, and more.</li>
<li><strong>Full-Service Expertise: </strong>As a business owner or facilities manager, it is a daily challenge to maintain your business while making cost-effective energy choices. When you choose an energy marketer, select a company that not only supplies natural gas, electricity and green power, but also is also willing to fully manage your <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/testimonials/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Ftestimonials%2F','testimonials')" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Ftestimonials%2F','others+have+to+say')" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Ftestimonials%2F','energy+portfolio')">energy portfolio</a> to ensure both current and future savings. Energy planning is a critical part of facilities management for businesses of all sizes, and it is critical to have an <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2F','expert')">expert</a> on your team.</li>
<li><strong>Votes of Confidence: </strong>One of the best ways to vet a potential energy marketer is by finding out what <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/testimonials/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Ftestimonials%2F','testimonials')" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Ftestimonials%2F','others+have+to+say')" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Ftestimonials%2F','energy+portfolio')">others have to say</a> about their services and support. Reputable energy procurement companies should be able to provide you with references, and should also have telling <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/testimonials/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Ftestimonials%2F','testimonials')" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Ftestimonials%2F','others+have+to+say')" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2Ftestimonials%2F','energy+portfolio')">testimonials</a> published on their websites or social media platforms.  <strong> </strong></li>
</ul>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An acknowledged leader in energy choice, Metromedia Energy (MME) recently introduced its new, breakthrough brand across print and electronic platforms. Representing the company’s continuing growth, the new logo incorporates MME’s iconic colors in the form of concentric turbine blades. The design showcases a modern vision of aggressive strategies, and represents the company’s commitment to integrated, low-cost energy procurement.</p>
<p>“MME began operations in the restructured markets of the Northeast, and we are now offering our services nationwide. As we grow our product and service offerings into an expanding footprint, we wanted a new brand identity that would distinguish our uniqueness in the industry,” said MME President &amp; CEO Jonathan Morris.</p>
<p>As part of the rebranding initiative, MME has undergone changes in its website, social media platforms and print communication tools. To complement the visual update, the company also rolled out a new tagline: <em>Simple Savings, Powerful Results.</em> “Our logo is recognizable as a standalone symbol, and our brand and tagline encapsulate the simple, common-sense approach we apply to creating client energy solutions,” said Morris.</p>
<p>“MME has remained a leader in the competitive energy industry by recognizing what our clients need: smart energy strategies that align with changes in the commodity market,” said Klaudet Ristovski, Director of Strategic Initiatives.</p>
<p>Leveraging over two decades of experience, MME partners with leading wholesale suppliers to provide natural gas &amp; electricity solutions that meet customer usage and budget requirements. Additional MME advantages include real-time pricing, group purchase discounts, custom invoicing management and full-service portfolio strategies.</p>

Why are energy costs so high despite plentiful supply? According to regulatory agencies and Energy Department analysts, there are a few good reasons.</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Retail energy rates are established by regulators who don’t always know what the market will do. </strong>While raw energy prices are at all-time lows, it may take some time for this to be reflected on the end-user’s bill.</li>
<li><strong><a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/ElecSolns" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2FElecSolns','Electricity+costs')" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2FElecSolns','electricity')">Electricity costs</a> are determined by more than production costs. </strong>Utility companies also add in the cost of getting power from point A to point B—and this “delivery charge” raises rates.</li>
<li><strong>To protect from price increases, many utility companies lock in rates for several years. </strong>Unfortunately, this prevents business owners and energy managers from <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/Consulting_Mgt" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2FConsulting_Mgt','enjoying+energy+savings')">enjoying energy savings</a> during a market decline.</li>
<li><strong>Power companies are putting money into declining equipment and infrastructure. </strong>To defray these expenses, they pass costs along to the customer.</li>
<li><strong>Many businesses lack the expertise to negotiate evolving energy markets.</strong> It’s difficult to keep up with operational tasks, and energy management takes a backseat.</li>
</ol>
<p>So, how can commercial, industrial and municipal customers realize year-round energy savings? By <strong><a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/RequestQuote" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2FRequestQuote','custom+quote')" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2FRequestQuote','exercising+energy+choice')">exercising energy choice</a>.</strong> In restructured states, businesses have the option to choose their own energy provider and negotiate terms and rates. To begin the process, partner with a <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/OurServices" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2FOurServices','knowledgeable+energy+advisor')">knowledgeable energy advisor</a>. When you collaborate with a <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/AboutUs" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2FAboutUs','leading+energy+marketer')">leading energy marketer</a> like MME, you can (1) choose from a range of competitive bids provided by industry-leading energy providers, and (2) lock in natural gas and electricity rates when the market is most competitive, and (3) learn more about where your energy dollars are going—and how you can spend them most wisely.</p>
<p><strong>Energy choice.</strong> It’s the future of energy—and the best way to save on natural gas and electric bills.

<p>Nonrenewable energy sources have been the backbone of power generation for hundreds of years. Besides not being renewable, these energy sources often result in pollution and environmental destruction. For this reason, renewable energy sources have been increasing in recent decades and are one day expected to replace the older sources of power generation.</p>
<p>Today’s Alternative Energy Solutions</p>
<p>Today, alternative sources of energy have become mainstream and power companies are increasingly utilizing these kinds of power. Home solar panels that are tied into the electrical grid are one example. In a home with this kind of system, power is generated for the household, and excess is fed back into the power lines and the homeowner gets a credit. When the sun is not shining, the home can draw on this credit and use power from the grid.</p>

<p>Most states now have deregulated energy systems replacing the old energy monopolies of the past. New Jersey is one State where both electricity and gas have been deregulated. This means the consumer has more choice in selecting green sources of energy using the same transmission lines that are already connected to their home. This can result in lower energy bills for consumers, as well as a cleaner environment.</p>

Metromedia Energy in Eatontown, New Jersey is dedicated to bringing energy solutions to businesses. Today, we’re talking about how an electric meter works because the more you know, the more you can save.</p>
<p>The most common unit of measurement on the electricity meter is the kilowatt hour &#8211;  [<em>kWh</em>]. This is equal to the amount of energy used by a load of one kilowatt over one hour.</p>
<p>The meter will read how many kilowatts are being loaded per hour and this is how much the meter will read. Meters are generally read once a month by the electric company. Many meters are ready remotely today.</p>

Home and business owners scramble for <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2F','tips+for+conserving+energy')">tips for conserving energy</a>, alternative energy solutions, or go green tips. Of course, the easiest way to conserve energy in the summer is to eliminate the use of your air conditioner, but nobody wants to do that. Thankfully, there is a variety of others ways you can conserve energy in the summer.</p>
<p>One of the biggest culprits of wasted energy is a long shower. Many people spend a great deal of idle time in the shower. While spending extra time in the shower may seem relaxing, it might not be once you realize how many gallons of water you are wasting.</p>
<p>Another culprit of wasted energy is idle electronics, particularly televisions, that consume electricity even when they are no on. This is a tricky waste of energy because you may feel like you have done your job once you turn everything off in your house before you leave for vacation. In order to not waste energy this summer, unplug all the electronics that you are not using so that they do not guzzle up extra electricity.</p>
<p>You can also conserve energy by lowering the temperature of your water by merely a few degrees, making your water heater more energy efficient. Other tricks, like shutting down your computer instead of conveniently letting it go to sleep, will also help you save energy in the long run.</p>
<p>To learn how you can save even more money on your electricity bills this summer call Metromedia Energy in Eatontown, New Jersey. We are energy marketers working with energy deregulation to save your business money. “Like” us on<a href="https://www.facebook.com/metromediaenergy" onclick="return TrackClick('https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fmetromediaenergy','Facebook')"> Facebook</a> for more great energy saving tips.</p>

<li>HVAC Systems. Install energy efficient heating and cooling systems in your home. The upgrade will obviously cost money, but in the long run you can save money on your heating and cooling costs. Install a programmable thermostat to regulate temperatures throughout the day.</li>

<p>“Energy deregulation is used to introduce competition into the electricity industry. This is done by allowing consumers to decide from whom they buy their electrical power. People generally appreciate a variety of options when they must spend their money.</p>
<p>A few decades ago, options among power suppliers were unheard of. The power market in each state was virtually monopolized. This meant that people had to take the power that they were given, at the price that is was offered, from the source making the offer. The advent of energy deregulation has changed this, giving consumers the power of choice.”</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When choosing to fuel your office or home, you need a fuel that is reliable, safe and clean. You also need a source or energy that is economical and versatile. Natural gas is the cleanest burning fossil fuel and converting to a natural gas heating system has many advantages. When you choose Metromedia Energy as your natural gas provider, you will receive a comprehensive package of services including a wide variety of pricing plans designed to save you money and customized invoicing options designed to save you time. But first, we’re here to give you some information on why you should make the <a href="http://www.metromediaenergy.com/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.metromediaenergy.com%2F','natural+gas+conversion')">natural gas conversion</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Environment</strong></p>
<p>A space that converts to natural gas heating will emit up to 40 percent less carbon dioxide and less than 99.9 percent less sulfur dioxide. These are two major factors to climate change. Converting to natural gas also reduces emissions that deplete the ozone and contribute to respiratory illnesses.</p>
<p>Natural gas is cleaner-burning than other fossil fuels like oil and coal. By making this conversion, you can ease a number of environmental concerns—greenhouse gas emissions, smog, waste, water pollution and acid rain.</p>
<p><strong>Finances</strong></p>
<p>Gas equipment is more efficient which means less energy is used, saving you money on heating costs. Natural gas costs less to use than electricity, propane, kerosene or heating oil. You can also say goodbye to the oil tank and waiting for fuel deliveries. You will have a constant supply of energy with natural gas.</p>
<p><strong>Reliability</strong></p>
<p>Most natural gas consumed in the country is produced domestically. This assures a ready supply of fuel, and its underground pipeline delivery system is reliable, safe and protected from disturbances based on weather.</p>
<p><strong>Convenience</strong></p>
<p>There are many everyday advantages that come along with your conversion to natural gas. Natural gas water heaters recover faster than electric models, and natural gas ranges cook faster with more heat control.</p>
<p>Natural gas heat feels warmer than that produced by an electric heat pump, and a fireplace fueled by natural gas can warm a room faster than a wood-burning fireplace.</p>
<p><strong>Safety</strong></p>
<p>Our country’s natural gas industry spends over $4 billion per year to ensure the safety of natural gas customers and is proud of its outstanding safety record.</p>
<p>Safe, reliable, convenient and environmentally friendly, a conversion to gas can benefit you just as much as the planet.

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At Metromedia Energy, Inc., it is our top priority to save you and your business from high utility costs. We are passionate about saving you money and are working independently to do just that! We also would like to encourage you to conserve energy. Aside from putting money back in your pocket, there are many reasons to conserve energy! Metromedia Energy is here to answer that burning question: “<a href="http://www.mmenergy.com/" onclick="return TrackClick('http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mmenergy.com%2F','why+save+energy')">why save energy</a>?”</p>
<p><strong>Limited Resources</strong></p>
<p>Every time we perform the smallest task that uses energy, the natural resource used to create that energy becomes depleted. Once this resource is gone, it is gone for good. Fossil fuels (such as oil, gas and coal) which we depend on for energy are limited in supply, which will run out sooner than many realize. According to studies, fossil fuels are more precious than ever until we resolve the problem of our reliance on them.</p>
<p><strong>Pollution </strong></p>
<p>Burning fossil fuels to create energy produces pollution, which impacts the environment negatively. When the fossil fuels go through combustion, they form carbon dioxide which contributes to global warming, impacts human health, raises sea levels, changes plant growth and is leading to the possible extinction of some plants and animals.</p>
<p><strong>Climate Change</strong></p>
<p>Our use of energy is drastically affecting climate patterns. The release of carbon dioxide changes the Earth’s natural climate and weather systems. Courses of hot summers can be a nice change for some places with wet weather, but flooding, diminishing ice caps, droughts and extreme weather conditions are not desirable around the world!</p>
<p><strong>Health</strong></p>
<p>Conserving energy can bring many health benefits since less energy consumption produces fewer pollutants. Walking or riding a bike instead of driving saves energy and reduces pollutants, while at the same time providing you with physical activity!</p>
<p><strong>Money</strong></p>
<p>Lower energy consumption results in lower utility bills! Choosing energy-efficient appliances also helps the bills as they use less energy than older models. Saving energy provides a benefit to your bank account and helps the environment!</p>
