Master Energy Procurement: How the CEP Course Can Save You 25% on Costs (No Upfront Investment!)

What if you could cut 15–25% off your energy costs without spending a single dollar? In this video, Rich Costello, President of Acela Energy Group and longtime energy efficiency and procurement expert, shares real-world insights from a 30+ year career spanning utilities, ESCOs, and the early days of electric deregulation in the United States. Rich was instrumental in writing the first retail electric wholesale agreement used in the U.S. and later built the country’s largest energy procurement company. Drawing from those experiences, Rich explains why understanding your energy rate and tariff is one of the most overlooked—and most powerful—tools for savings. Through memorable stories and practical examples, he shows how small operational changes aligned with your utility rate can unlock massive cost reductions with little to no capital investment.
