We can help you save money now. We use collective buying power to lower your energy costs. With thousands of participants statewide and close to 40 years of experience, we negotiate with local energy providers to get our members deeply discounted rates on home heating products and services.
We can refer you to trusted local providers who can recommend and install energy efficiency products and we can help you find information on programs and technologies that can help you make the switch to green heating sources. We only work with reputable local energy companies that offer high quality products and services at discounted NYPIRG member prices and that have courteous and knowledgeable staff members in every department.
Last year, our home heating oil customers saw an average savings of more than fifty cents per gallon and we can do the same for you and your neighbors! We also offer discounted service contracts, natural gas and electricity programs and price caps to protect you from this volatile energy market - no matter how high prices go!

Helping You Meet Your Energy Needs Renewably

The Fuel Buyers Group is here to help: We can help point you in the green direction by offering information on how to reduce your carbon footprint through do-it-yourself approaches, as well as locally-available programs and technologies. We can refer you to trusted local providers who can recommend and install energy efficiency products, and we’ll help you find information on programs and technologies that can help you make the switch to green heating sources.
