EnergyGateway.com, headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, is harnessing the power and speed of the Internet to create a new global marketplace for energy goods and services: a marketplace providing buyers and sellers with reduced costs, simplified transactions, and expanded intelligence about available energy sources and options.
The
EnergyGateway.com system went live online in mid-September of 1999. After just six months, more than $200 million in transactions had been committed to it by leading companies such as Procter & Gamble, PPG Industries, and International Paper.
The system, a highly customizable Internet-based e-commerce transaction platform, includes four “Energy Marketplaces” -- natural gas, electricity, commercial energy savings and residential energy savings. Each marketplace operates as a hub community of buyers and sellers, allowing both to transact more efficiently and effectively. EnergyGateway.com can also provide large customers with a licensed version of their software platforms for utilization in their own e-commerce initiatives.
