"Direct Energy is always looking for ways to provide additional value to our customers," said Clinton Roeder, Senior Vice President, Direct Energy."
This partnership gives consumers the benefit of earning Aeroplan Miles while managing their energy costs with one of our many natural gas or electricity plans, including carbon-neutral and green energy options."
