Retail Electricity for Dallas Fortworth Airport

If you have been wondering who just bagged the contract for electricity supplies to Dallas FortWorth Airport, it is none other than Champion Energy Services LLC. I greatly admire Champion Energy Services especially since last year when I got to know that their annual revenues went sky high. (US$ 350m). Now, this is really something for a company with just about 70 employees.

Anyway, Champion is now the proud owner of the contract which it won in a reverse auction. Champion Energy is a houston company and is one of the top 5 unaffiliated retail electric suppliers. The bid closed at 5.925 cents per kilowatt-hour. Currently, the suppliers for the airport are Texas General Land Office and Houston-based Reliant Energy.

Champion Energy boasts of embracing deregulation and creating value for its customers.They have a peak load of about 1000 megawatts.

Dallas Fortworth International Airport is the world’s third-busiest airport. Apparantly, this new electricity and green energy contract was purchased through World Energy Exchange, operated by World Energy Solutions in Worcester, Mass. While DFW has done this, other airports too are after such green energy initiatives.
