The Retail Energy Supply Association (RESA) is the nation’s premier organization that works to preserve and promote competitive markets for electricity and natural gas for the benefit of consumers. For more than 20 years RESA’s consistent advocacy at the state level and FERC has been key to earning a reputation as a sought-after voice within our industry.

We strive to provide value to our members by focusing on the following:

We advocate for retail electric & gas restructuring issues that are presented by state public utility commissions, state legislatures & FERC

RESA contracts with state & regional attorneys who monitor restructuring issues & engage lobbyists to represent RESA’s interests in legislative activities

Through advocacy measures, RESA members routinely meet with policy and decision makers. Our hands-on advocacy is critical to defend existing markets & advancement of establishing new choice markets

RESA has been an invaluable resource for advocacy and intervention in support of our efforts to move the energy industry forward. Working collaboratively has made us more effective and efficient on all matters impacting retail choice. In addition to the useful monitoring and lobbying resources RESA provides, the connections I’ve made and relationships I’ve built through my engagement with this organization have proven to be indispensable.

As a State Chair, I value members’ engagement and willingness to participate in a broad range of regulatory and legislative proceedings to promote competitive retail energy markets.

RESA helps more cost-effectively use regulatory budgets by sharing the expense with other gas suppliers and provides a forum to speak with a stronger voice that represents multiple providers, not just one.

I look to the “Phil O’Connor Thought Leadership” page as a helpful resource for answers when addressing questions from policymakers about the benefits of competitive markets and how they differ from traditional vertically-integrated models.

The key value that RESA provides for me is the structure of each market that is monitored, where we have retained some of the more talented consultants in the industry. This structure allows me to receive timely information on regulation changes, legislative activities, and proceedings that impact our industry. Without these tools, reaction and collaborative participation could be severely impaired.
