Commerce Energy, the largest non-utility retail energy marketer in the U.S, will deploy Triple Point Commodity XL to manage power and gas trade capture, deal confirmation processing, position management and sophisticated risk reporting and analysis. The solution will help Commerce Energy achieve both Sarbanes Oxley 404 compliance and the ability to offer customers additional pricing flexibility.

"The Triple Point system selection is a continuation of our new technology strategy in which we are moving away from in house built systems and toward utilizing best in class industry software," said Peter Weigand, President of Commerce Energy Group. "We found that Triple Point's scalable architecture and advanced power and gas functionality were the best fit for our requirements." Once deployed, Triple Point Commodity XL will streamline operations by seamlessly interfacing with Commerce Energy's retail systems, general ledger and market pricing data applications. "This agreement with a rapidly growing energy marketer validates our longstanding commitment to retail energy providers," said Peter Armstrong, president of Triple Point Technology. "We've invested heavily to ensure our solution has unique best-of-breed functionality for each commodity market, but is built on a common platform to streamline back-office activity and aggregate risk management, position reporting, and counter-party risk."
