Quantum Quote: \u201cWe\u2019re not magicians. We\u2019re just nerds.\u201d \u2013 EnergyOgre\u2019s Motto

\xa0

People are busy, and we do not usually pay attention to electricity - until the times when it\u2019s not there.\xa0

\xa0

In the 1990s, many states deregulated their electricity utilities. If you are in New York or Texas or other deregulated states, you can now choose your electricity supplier. But, many homeowners are overpaying for electricity without knowing it.\xa0

\xa0

Texas has about 140 authorized retail electricity providers providing consumers with the opportunity to choose. Across the US, different regulatory systems make choosing the right electricity supplier a time-consuming and confusing process.\xa0

\xa0

You might even have experienced being tricked by that \u201cswitch your electricity provider - pay less, save more, and receive freebies\u201d tactic. Then, after a month or two - boom! You're paying triple the low introductory rate,

\xa0

In Texas, for only $10/month, you can have an expert who will figure out the best energy choice to lower your costs and provide a cleaner and greener country.

Check out this week\u2019s AWESome EarthKind podcast where we interview Jesson Bradshaw.

SuperNova #1. You probably have a spider sense that you should check your insurance coverage. I think people\u2019s intuition tells them that they probably are not in a completely optimized situation. What\u2019s shocking to them is how unoptimized that actually are. If you can cut 25-45% of the cost out, it\u2019s like, \u201cOh, that\u2019s a lot more than my spider sense was telling me.\u201d If you haven\u2019t changed your provider and you\u2019ve never talked with your provider because you\u2019re in auto pay in two or three years, guaranteed \u2013 you\u2019re sub-optimized. You gotta put the work in.

SuperNova #2. I\u2019m not selling electricity. I\u2019m stepping in as a subject matter expert to manage your house like I manage my own \u2013 giving you your specific information, your specific demand profile, and what\u2019s the best option for you on a completely agnostic basis. We\u2019ve just aligned ourselves a hundred percent with the customers\u2019 side. We don\u2019t have any margin opportunities with placing people with any particular provider; we don\u2019t get paid by them.\xa0\xa0

\xa0

SuperNova #3. Renewables should end up winning in the long run. It's not because it's a mandate thing and may not even be a function of trying to meet a climate goal. I think it will happen just by matter of economics.

Most Energized About Today: \u201cI really love that there is this confluence of technology making its way into the energy space. There\u2019s so many things that flow out of our entire society based upon the way we consume energy \u2013 from how productive we are, how efficient we are, what that means in terms of wealth distribution \u2013 everything. The core of it all was really how we produce and how we consume energy. I\u2019m super excited at what I see \u2013 that we\u2019re right on the process. It\u2019s a really exciting time.\u201d \u2013 Jesson Bradshaw

Parting Advice: \u201cAs an entrepreneur, if anyone else out there is thinking about stepping off into that abyss, if you\u2019ve thought about it and you\u2019re gonna do it, there\u2019s so many opportunities, so many positive things that you can do to change folks around you, your communities, and really be a leader and a contributor. I highly encourage folks to look into that and if you\u2019re not sure - take a leap of faith from time to time. Be an innovator and bring your ideas for the benefit of all of us.\u201d \u2013 Jesson Bradshaw
