New Retail Energy Broker To Provide Residential Resiliency Services In Pennsylvania

Patel Energy LLC, a start-up, has re-filed for a Pennsylvania electric broker/marketer license to serve residential, small commercial, large commercial, and industrial customers in all service areas

Patel Energy LLC previously applied for a Pennsylvania broker license last year, but withdrew the application without prejudice as it gathered the information needed for licensure

Among other services, Patel Energy said that, for residential customers, "Patel Energy will provide distributed energy systems with the intention of solving customers power resiliency needs during outages from weather disturbances or other factors. Patel Energy will provide this solution through a Resiliency Agreement, which may involve brokering the customers power supply."

"Patel Energy's primary focus will be to provide Reliability Services with power commodity brokerage included within the scope of the Resiliency Agreement," Patel Energy said, but the company may also engage in brokering independent of any Resiliency Agreement if desired by the customer

Patel Energy will also provide "demand response and ancillary services" to customers across Pennsylvania, as well as utility bill management services including data and analytics.
