Chief Energy Renews EDI/CIS Billing Contract with EC Infosystems

EC Infosystems, a leader in Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) and Billing/Customer Information Solutions (CIS) for clients in the deregulated energy industry, today announced that Chief Energy has renewed its contract with EC Infosystems for the company’s integrated EDI and CIS/Billing solution.

Chief Energy is an Energy Service Company (ESCO) registered with the New York State Public Service Commission [NYSPSC] that supplies natural gas and electricity within the National Grid, Con Edison and Orange & Rockland service areas. In September, 2015, Chief Energy President and CEO, Mary Rizzuto-Galante, was honored with the “Turnaround of the Year” award at the September 2015 Energy Marketers Conference (EMC) in New York City. The award recognizes energy retailers that have made an outstanding comeback since the Polar Vortex of 2014, where wholesale fuel supply/price volatility put significant downward pressure on retail supplier’s capital requirements and margins.

“EC Infosystems has played an instrumental role in helping Chief Energy. The tools, reports and interfacing programs they offer helped us navigate through that incredibly changing period. At the same time they provide help in maintaining our high standards for customer service,” said Mary Rizzuto-Galante. “Their customer service department worked overtime to ensure we were in the best hands possible. We look forward to continuing our excellent relationship with EC Infosystems.”

“EC Infosystems has been experiencing strong contract renewals in 2015,” said EC Infosystems President and CEO, Mohan Wanchoo. “We are pleased that innovative energy retailers with strong management teams, like Chief Energy, have chosen to build their future with EC Infosystems technology and services.”
