Duke Energy has provided the following information on frequently asked questions around Ohio Energy Customer Choice (aka, Energy Choice Ohio). It refers to customers’ ability to choose their electric and/or natural gas supplier in Ohio; sometimes this can occur by “opting in” or “opting out” with what’s known as community aggregation. For some Duke Energy customers, the experience with competitive energy suppliers can be overwhelming, and Duke hopes that this information may be enlightening.

The OPERATING CODE for the Village of Cleves, Ohio, Department of WATER WORKS SYSTEM was adopted by Ordinance No. 14-1956 of the Board of Trustees of Public Affairs. These regulations were amended by Resolution No. 1-2012 to adopt the City of Cincinnati, Supplement to the State of Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) Construction and Materials Specification latest revision and the Greater Cincinnati Water Works (GCWW) Chapter 401 of the Cincinnati Municipal Code. The intent of this amendment was to update construction specification to agree with those of the GCWW and not to substantially change the Operating Code of the Cleves WATER WORKS SYSTEM. Billing and Payment Requirements specified in Chapter 401 of GCWW Regulation were specifically exempted. The billing and collection policies outlined in the Village of Cleves OPERATING CODE and the GCWW exemption dated January 22, 2012 have proved to be ineffective. Division E of the OPERATING CODE for the Village of Cleves, Ohio, Department of WATER WORKS SYSTEM is being rewritten to addresses billing and payment of water charges and shall apply to all USERS. The following rules, regulations and policies are established by order of the Village Administrator effective October 1, 2015 in order to provide for the safe, economical and efficient management and protection of the public utility system for the Village of Cleves.

In November 2012 the residents of the Village authorized the Village Council to implement aggregation programs for electricity and natural gas. The purpose of the aggregation programs is to provide a choice and to lower cost obtained by consolidating the consumption of all residents and small businesses. A secondary benefit is to minimize the potential of fraud, which frequently occurs when individual residents act on their own. Our first round of contracts for both services ended with savings for natural gas in excess of $10,000 and electricity savings of $83,000. New contracts became effective in October 2014 with a supplier named IGS, which will serve both natural gas and electricity. The rate for electricity is $0.0576 per kWh, which is about 7% lower the Duke Energy’s current rate of $0.0621. The natural gas rate is $5.28 (including sales tax) per 1000 cubic feet, which is about 12% lower than Duke Energy’s gas rate of $6.028 as of December 2014. Duke’s gas rate does change each month. If you are not under contract with a supplier and you want to join either aggregation program you should call IGS at 800-280-4474. There are no charges to join or leave either program at any time. If you decide to join either program, make sure to mention the Cleves aggregation program and have your Duke Energy bill handy since IGS will ask for your account number. If you have questions about either aggregation program you may contact the Village’s consultant, Eagle Energy at 251-7283.
