ghi^markets Mission
To expose electric, natural gas and communications professionals to important news, analysis, insights, meaning, predictions and interpretation with a touch of humor at times but free of sacred cows.  Best of all, it's absolutely FREE.

About ghi and our products

ghi’s mission since 1996 has been to create information services focused on the opening up of competitive retail and wholesale markets and the convergence of energy and communications.

ghi is led by George Spencer.  He has more than 40 years of experience in the energy industry and founded many top newsletters including Gas Daily, U.S. Oil Week, Coal Outlook and Air Daily.  This year the Center for the Advancement of Energy Markets (CAEM) honored him with the Paul Revere Award for “developing insight and perspective for more than two decades of reporting on changes in energy markets.”

Restructuring Today

ghi launched Restructuring Today in 1996, the nation’s leading daily news source focused on the opening up of competitive retail and wholesale markets and the convergence of energy and communications.  No other publication is more focused, so completely and deeply, on the opening up of competitive markets.

Other unique selling points include:

• RT is written so that it’s quick and easy to read, understand and act on.

• RT goes beyond the basic news by analyzing what’s happening in emerging markets.

• RT provides in-depth, exclusive interviews with leading industry CEOs regularly.

• RT covers many industry conferences.

• RT has a subscriber-only online database with an archive of past issues.

• RT is delivered electronically and by fax.

Restructuring Today has thousands of readers, many paying from $487 to $4000 (corporate licenses) to get it.

We do not allow advertising in Restructuring Today but don’t hesitate to submit your press release or story idea to our editor, George Spencer, at editor@restructuringtoday.com.  Please include your contact information.

BPL Today

ghi launched BPL Today on September 13 2004, a weekly newsletter chronicling the creation of the emerging broadband over power lines industry -- being created as electric utilities jump into the competitive world of internet and communications using poles and wires they already own.

BPL Today's readership is growing fast and the publication is showing great promise.

We do not allow advertising in BPL Today but, again, don’t hesitate to submit your press release or story idea to BPL Today's editor, Sam Spencer, at sam@ghinews.com.

ghi^markets

ghi launched ghi^markets in mid-2003, a free weekly e-zine focused on the opening up of competitive retail and wholesale markets and the convergence of energy and communications.

ghi^markets was created when the industry was in big trouble.  Professionals in our field were loosing their jobs and companies were going under.  Some RT readers couldn’t afford the news they had come to trust and depend on.  With ghi^markets we’ve created a community for those readers and others who enjoy our distinctive views and voice on emerging markets.

ghi^markets is also used to promote Restructuring Today, ghi’s audio conferences and CDs and partner companies products and services.

ghi^markets is a compilation of stories that were originally published in Restructuring Today with only minor editing. ghi^markets has over 25,000 energy professional subscribers.

Live Interactive Audio Conferences

ghi launched its very first live interactive audio conference in January of 2003 titled The Ball is in FERC’s Court with FERC Chairman Pat Wood and prominent Washington energy lawyer Mike Naeve of Skadden Arps as speakers.  It was an out of the ballpark home run with 200 lines sold ($150 - $200 each) and over 1000 people on the call.

Since then we’ve done twelve live interactive audio conferences with an average of 70 registrations (350 participants) each covering issues of great importance to our industry, including SMD, the August blackout, building liquidity, LNG, developing markets in the West and more.

Our speakers are recognized experts, including Arnold Schwarzenegger’s energy advisor, FERC’s market oversight chief, presidents of two big LNG firms, top advisors at big-name energy brokerage houses and consulting firms, several state commissioners, executives and advisors at some of America’s most influential utilities and a FERC commissioner.

ghi’s live interactive audio conferences answer vital questions, give our customers what they need, increase our in-house prospect lists and strengthen the editorial reputation of Restructuring Today and ghi^markets.  We plan on stepping up this side of the business in the future.

Recordings and transcripts of our audio conferences are available and sold on audio CD.
