Electricity Consortium
The CLG electricity consortium is a joint bid for the electricity supply costs for government facilities and streetlights. The program started in 2010 and immediately saved a combined $590,000 (or 40% of electricity costs for the participating communities). The deal was renewed in 2012, 2014, 2017, 2020, and 2023, resulting in increased savings each time.
The most recent electricity consortium bid was completed in early 2026 for 60 months, expiring on June 30th, 2031. The broker for this program is Priority Power. The supplier is IGS Energy. Governments can join this consortium “mid-contract.” They will be individually priced and would then roll into the next group bid.
Governments have the opportunity to either bid for a “combined” electricity rate (which prices buildings and streetlights at the same rate), or a “separated” rate (which provides a separate price for buildings and streetlights). For the 2026 contract, the “combined” rate is $0.0829/kwh. For more information, contact Jordan Haarmann at jhaarmann@Prioritypower.com or Drew Tilow at DTilow@C4LG.org.
Governments in the 2026 contract include:
Amberley Village
Blue Ash

Little Miami Joint Fire and Rescue District
