Headquartered in Mansfield, OH, Trebel guides customers through the complex process of aggregation formation by i) educating and gathering approval from local residences, ii) analyzing and negotiating sustainable "energy choice" products from various retail energy providers, and iii) maintaining procurement programs post-contracting.
