ACN Inc. Offers Energy Services to Canada Customers

Online, August 10, 2010 (Newswire.com) - CONCORD, NC, August 2, 2010 - ACN, which already offers customers essential services to make life easier, is now offering an option to power their world. The launch of ACN Energy allows customers in Canada to take control of their energy options by choosing a plan that fits their lifestyle and budget.

"ACN treats energy as another essential service," said ACN Chairman and Co-Founder Robert Stevanovski. "Customers should have more choice in what plans they want and how their energy use affects the Earth."

ACN has partnered with Planet Energy, a privately held retailer of natural gas and electricity, to provide energy services to its customers in Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia and Manitoba. Planet Energy purchases energy requirements at strategic times in terms of market pricing. This flexibility gives customers an advantage over utilities that have to purchase energy on a regulated price plan.

ACN customers can choose from several plans. There are fixed plans to pay a locked-in rate over a contract period, hybrid plans consisting of a variable rate and a fixed rate, and variable plans that fluctuate with market pricing. Customers will receive the same service from their local utility company, but the energy supplied will come from Planet Energy. The transition is seamless, so customers will not experience any interruption in service.

Plans and energy types vary by province, but all plans are available with green options to help customers offset their carbon footprint. The energy used by a customer is replaced with green energy purchased by Planet Energy.

"Planet Energy recognizes that energy markets tend to be volatile and significantly contribute to household expenses for consumers," Planet Energy CEO Paul DeVries said. "With our professional management, consumers are assured they will get responsive and responsible energy solutions that allow them peace of mind."

In addition to residential customers, ACN Energy is available for small and large businesses. The same range of plans - including plans with green options - is also available. ACN Energy is just one of the essential services ACN offers its customers. Details on all of ACN's products and services are available on myacncanada.ca.
