Customer survey names MLGW ‘environmental champion’

The 2015 Residential Utility Trusted Brand & Customer Engagement survey by Cogent Energy Reports named MLGW as one of the top three combined energy providers in the South for environmental dedication.

The survey measures operational satisfaction, product experience and brand trust among utility customers across the country. The survey included 125 of the largest utility companies.

MLGW was the only three-service utility company among the environmental category’s top performers.

Barbara Vergetis Lundin of Smart Grid News said that the rankings in that category were based on “the extent to which consumers believe providers are supporting environmental causes, committed to environmentally friendly energy sources, encouraging green initiatives and offering tools to help consumers save energy.”
