The firm will take on up to 100 energy customers over a three month period with the CME process expected to complete in January 2013.

"We are confident that the next three months will demonstrate that, having extensively tested the robustness of our systems, processes and customer services, they will be proven in an operational environment," said Tony Stiff, Managing Director of Kingston Energy.
