There are other reasons for increased profits. Lower costs from cuts. Capital investments in previous years paying off. Fewer storms. No pandemic. Increased fuel costs meaning poor people are resorting to electric heat more.

Of all the things to hate CMP for, why focus on blaming them for higher supply fees? The more likely story is that all those suppliers need to recoup their anti-corridor campaign funds and cash in before a huge green investment.

CMP did increase delivery rates on standard offer by 49% in 2023 so that could contribute I would think.

That they did. Maybe I misread it, but the poster I was responding to said that CMP benefitted from higher supplier rates.

Right, sorry if I sounded aggressive! I wasn’t really targeting you, just wanted to add to that thread.

I just feel like a lot of people are saying cmp isn’t making any money and isn’t the problem at all and I just don’t get where that message is coming from.

No worries. It sucks since I’m no CMP apologist but I certainly feel like one for suggesting they’re not 100% evil.

The delivery rates have not changed in 2023. The supply rates did. Please place the blame where it belongs... with the supplier, not CMP

Last delivery rate for cmp increased August 2021 (of 11.5%) and they requested a 30% increase last year but were denied. So not for lack of trying.
