Leading Ohio Forward: Smarter Energy for Schools, Businesses, and the Future

ENGIE leads a new business model that leverages the integration of retail supply and renewable generation. The “greentailer” model addresses customer sentiment that is trending away from thermal generation. ENGIE is the only top 5 Commercial and Industrial (C&I) supplier in North America without significant merchant thermal generation. In contrast, ENGIE is the only major renewable developer, owner, and operator with an important C&I position.

Since 2003, ENGIE has served a portfolio of more than 26,000 retail, commercial, and industrial customers across Ohio. We work with customers to identify a supply solution that addresses unique energy market characteristics, as well as individual risk tolerances and other strategic considerations. As a result, our client base reflects a spectrum of load profiles and products, including fixed, index, and “easy flex.”

Power4Schools

ENGIE Resources is proud to serve as the retail energy supplier for a consortium that reduces energy expenses and procurement costs for school districts and private schools in Ohio. More than 180 districts participating in the Power4Schools buying group have realized savings. This is thanks to a unique partnership between the Ohio Schools Council, the Ohio Association of School Business Officers, the Ohio School Boards Association, and the Buckeye Association of School Administrators.

The Ohio State Energy Partners

ENGIE North America and Axium Infrastructure joined forces in 2017 to form Ohio State Energy Partners. The partnership operates systems that heat, cool, and distribute power to the university’s Columbus campus. ENGIE, as the operator of these important functions, is responsible for the resiliency and reliability of utilities for the main campus.

Ohio State received an upfront payment of $1.1 billion and retains an industry leader to manage its energy systems, invest in energy efficiency upgrades, and collaborate on energy research.
