BALTIMORE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Constellation Energy (NYSE:CEG), one of the nation’s leading competitive electricity suppliers, today announced it is offering 2 million Ohio residential electric customers the opportunity to use 100 percent green energy in their home.
The Constellation Energy offer gives homeowners and renters in the service territories of Cleveland Electric Illuminating, Ohio Edison and Toledo Edison the option to power their homes with clean, renewable energy sources at a fixed rate for 12 months.
“We recognize the growing demand for green energy in all sectors and are pleased to offer more than 2 million Ohioans price-protected, 100 percent green energy for their home,” said Kenny Matula, Constellation’s senior vice president for residential markets.

Constellation Energy, an established energy supplier to thousands of Ohio businesses, recently began expanding its energy supply options to residential customers in Ohio.
