Has anyone had experience switching from Con Ed to an ESCO? Lower energy costs, locked in rates, no sales tax all sound attractive. Which company would you recommend?
We have not made a switch yet but have been working with a company called Tradition Energy who will put your building out to bid with a number of ESCO's. I've never heard of the "delivery charge" changing if you switch because Con Ed continues to bill you for the delivery charge after the switch, but it's definitely worth asking. Most savings are realized on the reduction in sales tax.

I switched over once, to something I believe called ITC, just for my own apartment. The monthly bill went significantly up. Why? Because (and I don't remember the exact name and don't have a bill right in front of me) "transport charge" or "delivery charge" that Con Ed charges itself is lower than what it charges ESCOs.
So even though the rate per kilowatt hour was lower with the ESCO, the overall bill was higher.
