National Energy Marketers Association Opening West Coast Office

The National Energy Marketers Association announced that it will be opening a new West Coast office in Nevada this summer, to supplement its current office in Washington, D.C.

NEM’s western expansion highlights the resurgence of retail choice activity in California, Nevada and other states, the organization said

"Twenty years ago, NEM was founded on the mission of ensuring that the benefits of retail competition reach even the smallest residential consumer. NEM is eager to continue this mission in regulatory advocacy efforts across the country," said Craig Goodman, President of NEM.

"What makes the current movement to expand the availability of retail choice in the Western states so exciting is that it is a consumer-driven response to the Energy Technology Revolution. Consumers of all sizes are demanding access to an ever-expanding array of energy product and service choices to suit individual needs and preferences, not just plain vanilla utility service. NEM will be on the ground to participate in these groundbreaking efforts," Goodman added.

NEM will also be convening a Western Energy Policy Summit on October 23-25, 2017, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Leading policy and industry thought leaders will be convening at the summit to identify and discuss strategies for the successful expansion of retail choice in Nevada and California and elsewhere.
