What is Energy Choice?
Virginia Energy Choice is the Commonwealth's statewide consumer education program, under the guidance of the State Corporation Commission (SCC), to inform Virginians about the new way they will be purchasing electricity and natural gas.
The campaign - which includes the Virginia Energy Choice Web site, a toll-free number, grassroots outreach and community education, educational materials and advertising - will help you take control of the process so you can make an informed decision when competing energy suppliers begin to make offers in your area.
The State Corporation Commission is the state government entity that oversees the state's utilities. In addition to educating consumers about energy choice, the SCC will work to ensure that Virginians receive quality service, that regulated companies meet their obligations to the public, and that consumer disputes with regulated companies are handled appropriately.
If you are a gas supplier and would like further information about the Customer CHOICE® Program, please call the Director of Marketer and Key Transporter Services at Columbia Gas of Virginia at 1.800.543-8911.
