Energy. “We are confident that this transaction will not only strengthen infrastructure that E.L.K. Energy Inc. needs to provide affordable, reliable energy, but will also ensure that those needs are met for generations to come,” said Essex Mayor Sherry Bondy. “ENWIN Utilities Ltd. is well-equipped to enhance E.L.K.’s existing operations and infrastructure across its service area.” What does this mean for customers?
