Constellation Energy (NYSE:CEG), one of the leading competitive
energy suppliers to Illinois business and residential customers,
today announced it is a Proud Partner of The Chicago Bears Football
Club. Constellation Energy will help drive the Bears’ comprehensive
environmental awareness initiative, culminating with the
organization’s first “Environment Friendly Game” against the San
Diego Chargers on Sunday, Nov. 20. Constellation Energy also will
be the energy provider to Halas Hall, home to the Bears’ front
office and practice facilities.
“Like the Bears, the Constellation team is made up of fierce
competitors, and our goal on and off the field is to bring
electricity choice and savings to Chicagoland business and
residential customers,” said Bruce Stewart, chief marketing
officer, Retail Energy, for Constellation Energy. “At Soldier Field
and at homes and businesses across Illinois, we’re helping
customers manage their energy costs and make meaningful
contributions to environmental sustainability.”
Constellation Energy will usher in the first “Environment
Friendly Game” at Soldier Field by purchasing renewable energy
certificates (RECs) that will cover the typical energy usage on
game day. That will help the Bears and fans attending the event
avoid approximately 42 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions.
“Constellation Energy is honored to be the power behind the
Bears, both as an electricity supplier and as a strong contributor
to the Bears’ environmental stewardship programs,” said
Stewart.
“The Chicago Bears Football Club is thrilled to partner with
Constellation Energy as we launch our ‘Save Da Planet’ awareness
initiative,” said Chris Hibbs, senior director of Sales &
Marketing with the Chicago Bears. “We thank Constellation Energy
for its partnership and look forward to future collaborations.”
Constellation Energy currently offers Bears’ fans and
Chicagoland residents a green electricity choice plan that
automatically includes 10 percent green energy – energy generated
from renewable sources such as wind and solar. Constellation also
provides the option for customers to increase their green energy to
50 or 100 percent. Constellation Energy, the nationwide leader in
the commercial electricity sector, began providing residential
electric service to Chicago-area residents in February, offering
fixed-price certainty on electricity supply at rates lower than the
current utility standard offer prices. See home.constellation.com

Constellation Energy has been providing electric and natural gas
service to thousands of the state's largest employers, schools,
hospitals and municipalities for more than a decade.
