SYRACUSE — BlueRock Energy, Inc. is publishing a new index it says will allow businesses to compare wholesale electricity prices with those on their energy bills.
The electricity, natural gas, and green-energy provider, which is headquartered at 432 N. Franklin St. in Syracuse, launched its Electric Price Index on Dec. 11. The index is based on the energy use of a Central New York business customer over a 30-day period.
It takes into account wholesale costs for generating and transmitting electricity to a utility. The index is the first market-based daily index for retail electricity in New York, BlueRock Energy said in a news release.
