Power Crisis Drives Service Provider from California Market
LCG, Dec. 21, 2000--New West Energy, the first energy service provider licensed to compete in California's deregulated electricity market, said yesterday it will get out of the retail electricity market in the state and turn its customers back to their local utilities."If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen," President Harry S.
