"In
2002, Hines asked
us to coordinate the entry of our Texas properties into the
uncertain world of electricity deregulation.
"The
variables of a fluctuating energy market, monopoly firms converting
to a deregulated world, trading firms entering the industry and
recent news of less-than-satisfactory results in other states gave us
a king-size dose of trepidation.
"We organized a consortium of 19 Texas buildings and embraced
the task.
"The
results easily justified the efforts, with an $18-million savings
achieved over the two-year contract period we negotiated."
