IGS Energy announced the successful closing of its acquisition of Just Energy, creating one of the largest energy retailers in North America. The combined company now serves nearly 7.5 million residential customer equivalents (RCEs), solidifying its position for continued growth in deregulated energy markets across the U.S. and Canada.

With the transaction completed, 2,250 employees have joined forces under the expanded IGS Energy umbrella, significantly increasing the company’s presence in key energy markets. Just Energy will continue to operate independently under its existing brands, leveraging its proven operating model. This strategic partnership positions both companies to capitalize on their strengths and expand customer offerings.

“We are delighted to officially welcome Just Energy and proud of the hard work and collaboration all the teams put in to make this new partnership a reality,” said Scott White, president and CEO of IGS Energy. “Just Energy’s highly successful origination channels, marquee retail relationships, and deep industry expertise are a perfect complement to our capabilities. Together, we’re better positioned to seize new growth opportunities, particularly in Texas.”

Based in Houston, Texas, Just Energy has served the retail energy sector for over 25 years, operating under established brands like Just Energy, Hudson Energy, Amigo Energy and Tara Energy. The acquisition significantly broadens IGS Energy’s footprint in the ERCOT (Texas) market, fulfilling a key long-term objective, while also strengthening its presence in PJM markets.
