Once the application and creditworthiness requirement are satisfied you must complete EDI Phase III testing with the company.

You will be required to post a cash deposit based on the level of testing required which will accrue interest, and be refunded at the time of commencing retail sales in the Company's service territory. If, for any reason the ESCO fails to commence retail operations within three months of completing EDI testing, the deposit will be forfeited to the Company.

EDI Core Transactions only: $5,000
EDI Core Transaction and Single Bill Testing: $10,000

Please complete the following form:

EDI Pre-testing Request (.doc). Complete and Return via e-mail to the addresses listed above. For additional information on EDI Data Dictionaries and Implementation guides you can refer to the following PSC link:

If you have any questions about completing these forms, please contact the representatives listed in Step Two.

Once the above steps are met, we will notify the PSC that you are eligible to participate in our Gas Retail Access program. Your name will also be added to our Energy Supplier list and website.
