Liberty Power Enters Residential Electric Market in Maryland and Connecticut

FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla., May 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Liberty Power, one of the nation's fastest-growing and largest independent energy retailers, today announced it has launched residential programs in Connecticut and Maryland.  In doing so, Liberty Power is expanding the availability of its offers to an additional 3 million residents. 

The retail electricity supplier first began serving non-residential customers in Maryland and Connecticut during 2006 and 2007, respectively.  These residential market entries mark the fifth and sixth states where Liberty Power has a formal residential retail electric program, joining New York, Illinois, Pennsylvania and Texas.  The company has plans to expand its residential program into additional markets later this year. 

"We are very excited to be able to provide residents of Maryland and Connecticut with the same kind of low-cost electricity and exceptional customer service that we have been providing business owners in those same markets for more than five years," stated David Hernandez, co-founder and CEO.

At the time of launch, the company will offer its Home Independence Plan, a fixed-rate product with terms of 12 and 24-months.  Liberty Power continues to grow its portfolio of residential products, and additional products may become available to Connecticut and Maryland residents in the future. 

Residents who choose Liberty Power as their retail electricity supplier will continue to receive one bill and the same level of service from their local utility, who will still deliver the electricity, maintain the pole and wires, and respond to power outages.  There is no sign-up fee, and there will be no interruption in electricity service.  Liberty Power also offers competitive rates for commercial accounts.  Customers may call 855-776-9377 to sign up by phone.
