FROM THE FOUNDER
For more than a quarter
of a century TriStem has been an advocate for consumers of electric power.
Terms, measurement, complicated tariffs, confusing bills, and the like, have
made buying electric power an unfamiliar realm for virtually all consumers.
TriStem has endeavored to help clients get fair and equitable pricing and have
confidence in the accuracy of billing. “Peace of mind” for our clients has been
our objective. As a part of our service, TriStem has provided a broad spectrum
of services for our clients. Listed below are a few.
-
Designed and installed Energy
Management Systems (EMS). In 1983, TriStem installed more of Honeywell's
EMS in Texas than Honeywell did.
-
TriStem was installing devices that
would enable clients to monitor their electrical consumption 20 years ago.
-
Started an engineering subsidiary
to assist clients in conserving and managing energy. Though now a separate
entity, TriStem Engineering is a very successful and highly respected
engineering firm.
-
Negotiated (or renegotiated)
contracts on behalf of clients--countless numbers over the last 25 years.
-
Audited electric bills for
clients--hundreds of thousands of bills.
-
Recovered overcharges for clients.
Total recoveries and savings for clients exceed $100,000,000.
-
Represented clients in courts and
before regulatory commissions to correct inequities when needed.
-
Sought and achieved changes in
regulations for the benefit of all consumers. In Texas, utilities ere not
required to pay interest on overcharges when refunded until TriStem led an
initiative to require that interest be paid. The effort succeeded.
