PECO Energy launched a new energy services and retail energymarketing company, called Exelon Energy, which will combine thediverse operations of Horizon Energy, PECO Energy/Energy One andPECO Energy/Horizon Group.

“We have learned from our experiences in the [Pennsylvania]pilot that consolidating our three brands into one would make iteasier for our customers to do business with us,” said Greg Cucchi,senior vice president, PECO Energy.

But Exelon will combine much more than three brands. PECO saidthe new company “raise[s] the bar in energy competition by creatinga diverse portfolio of products and services under the Exelonumbrella,” including residential, small business, industrial andcommercial energy supply; energy procurement and brokering;consolidated energy billing and reporting; fuel and plantmanagement services; on-site energy management and maintenance;distributed infrastructure planning, construction and maintenance;energy efficiency evaluation and implementation; and customizedtelecommunications packages.

“Our goal here at Exelon is to make us the easiest company to dobusiness with by revolutionizing the way businesses and consumersuse, access and manage energy and information,” said Cucchi.
