Opus Energy: Opus Energy takes energy purchasing to the next level;
New enhancements to the Opus Evolution product give customers greater
control over energy portfolio
(M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
RDATE:21052008
Opus Energy, a leading independent supplier of electricity to
UKbusinesses, has today unveiled new advancements to Opus Evolution,
its market-leading online energy purchasing system. With volatility in
the energy markets, Opus Evolution allows customers direct access to
wholesale energy prices, giving them the power to determine when and
how much energy to purchase.
This pioneering product is another example of how independent
electricity suppliers like Opus Energy are developing new innovative
technology solutions to meet customer needs and succeed in this
competitive market. Launched just six months ago and offered
exclusively by Opus Energy, this unique purchasing system provides the
definitive alternative to the fixed price plan.
This second stage of enhancements has been driven by customer feedback
as well as meeting the growing demands of customers wishing to make
crucial decisions themselves and move away from dependence on fixed
pricing.
Significant new developments and functionality of Opus Evolution
include:
- Online position reports to enable customers to track their energy
purchasing strategy
- Real-time online access to market wholesale prices
- Seamless integration with their online electricity account to enable
customers to easily manage their electricity account information
To help drive the success of Opus Evolution, Opus Energy has bolstered
its Corporate Solutions team with the appointment of Jon Daniels as
Product Manager. Formerly with British Gas Business and Enron Direct,
Jon brings with him seven years' experience in commercial utilities.
His key focus will be on engaging with customers who use the product,
driving future development and helping Opus Energy grow its corporate
base.
Steve James, CommercialDirector at Opus Energy, said: "Flexibility is
essential to allow companies to optimize their purchasing strategies
and help control the ever increasing cost of energy. Opus Evolution is
at the forefront of this market and we will continue to look at further
advancements to better equip our customers.
"At this crucial time in the development of Opus Evolution, we are
delighted to have Jon join the Corporate Solutions team. His
significant utility market experience coupled with his enthusiasm and
progressive approach will contribute notably to Opus Evolution's growth
and the service our customers receive."
