If you like EnergyBiz Insider, you are about to get more of it. We are expanding from three-days-a-week to five-days beginning next week.

The mission, no doubt, remains the same: to be intellectually honest and to approach each issue in a fair manner. And while most of the columns I write will tackle subject matters in the same way they do now, others will vary. Some may have an edge. Some may break news. Some may be penned by the experts.

After each story, readers will be able to immediately comment, recognizing that we would appreciate each note coming with a name and location. Those comments, though, should be short, and civil. We understand and appreciate that our readers really do look forward to the longer and more thoughtful letters that either add to or take issue with the premise that is laid out in the traditional Insider column. Therefore, about once a week, we’ll run those reader responses.

We are open to new ideas. The goal is to expand the kind of information we deliver and to do so each business day. Readers will see contributions from other editors at Energy Central, including Marty Rosenberg of EnergyBiz Magazine.

Knowledge is power. And the time has come to give you more information – the type of news and insight that will give you an edge in the market. To that end, EnergyBiz Insider is expanding and will always be a critical source. ###
