About

Who is Great Eastern Energy?

Registered as Great Eastern Energy, LLC, Great Eastern Energy uses this legal name for state public-utility-commission filings and customer contracts. The trading name on bills is the shorter, more recognisable form.

The company is headquartered in Brooklyn, NY, where it runs senior management, customer operations and regulatory liaison with state commissions.

Great Eastern Energy was established in 1996. A longer track record means more years operating under state-commission rules and a wider history of customer feedback, billing and regulatory interactions.

Great Eastern Energy is part of the Skyview Capital Ventures group, which provides shared governance, financial backing and a broader pool of expertise in wholesale-market trading, hedging and regulatory work.

Frequently asked

Great Eastern Energy — answers to common questions

Great Eastern Energy is regulated by the public utility commission in each state where it operates. Reliability is best judged against your own usage profile: read recent reviews, confirm the customer-service hours match when you actually need to call, and compare the unit rate against the utility's price-to-compare for your zip code.

Plans can typically be enrolled directly on Great Eastern Energy's website or by calling 1-888-651-4121. Before signing up, always compare the unit rate (¢/kWh for electricity, $/therm for gas) against your utility's price-to-compare for your zip code.

You can switch your retail supplier at any time, though early termination fees (typically $50-$200) may apply if you are on a fixed-rate plan and within the contract term. Check your enrollment letter or Terms of Service for the exact figure. Switching back to your default utility supply is always free.
