American Power & Gas® Joins Retail Energy Supply Association, Further Strengthening its Commitment to Industry Leadership

HARRISBURG, Pa. and Seminole, Fla. (August 15, 2024) – The Retail Energy Supply Association (RESA), the nation’s leading trade association representing competitive retail energy suppliers, announces American Power & Gas® joins as its newest member.

American Power & Gas is an energy supplier founded in Florida in 2011. The company’s business structure has been designed as a model company, born out of collective experience and knowledge accumulated over 40 years. American Power & Gas employs over 400 dedicated people who are dedicated to customer care. Monitoring and contributing to sustainability are some of the company’s key drivers, which helped the company decide to make multiple green energy programs available to all customers.  

“We would like to welcome American Power & Gas to RESA,” said Edwin Dearman, president of RESA. “We look forward to working with their leadership on special projects and opening new competitive retail energy markets.”

RESA promotes policies that foster competition, ensuring consumers benefit from choice, savings and reliability in their energy options. By joining RESA, American Power & Gas gains a platform to collaborate with industry peers and stakeholders, advocating for regulatory frameworks that support a fair, competitive marketplace and drive advancements in energy technology and efficiency.

“RESA’s interaction with the regulators and consumers of our industry is thorough and consistent. We are very pleased to be a part of this team and look forward to contributing to the efforts of keeping choice available and beneficial for customers,” said Jim Bridgeforth, CEO of American Power & Gas.

“We look forward to working with American Power & Gas, which will bring an additional perspective to our association,” said Tracy McCormick, executive director of RESA.  

RESA advocates for consumer choice in 13 states and the District of Columbia, representing large and small retail electricity and natural gas providers. As advocates for retail electric and gas restructuring issues presented by state public utility commissions, state legislatures and FERC, RESA members routinely meet with policy and decision-makers.

Each market has its own policy monitoring group for electric and natural gas issues, in which members elect a chair to spearhead efforts. The groups monitor policy developments related to electricity and natural gas retail competition, whether before state legislatures or regulatory commissions and administrative agencies.
