The National Energy Marketers Association (NEM) announced that Discount Power, Inc. and Demand Control 2, LLC have each been elected to NEM's Executive Committee.

Discount Power will be represented by Joel Glassman, Chief Operating Officer; Gino Tarantino, Chief Financial Officer; and Michael Ferreri, Chief Marketing Officer.

Discount Power, Inc. is a competitive retail energy supplier that currently sells electricity and gas products in 21 utilities across five states.

Launching operations in 2009, Discount Power currently serves 35,000 meters.

Demand Control 2, a start-up whose launch was exclusively first reported by EnergyChoiceMatters.com in April, has stated that it, "intends to transform the way companies purchase energy by enabling them access to the wholesale energy markets (either by creating a self-supply group managed by DC2 or transparent wholesale access), which provides their business with more control and engagement to lower costs, manage owned generation, reduce energy risk, and provide access to renewable energy."
