LISLE, Ill., Feb. 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- More than 500 companies – ranging from electric utilities and multinational oil and gas companies to Fortune 500 financial institutions – now settle energy transactions on Aquilon's Energy Settlement Network. ESN is an innovative, cloud-based platform that automates the energy settlement process. The network helps members increase security of sensitive information, improve financial performance, settle more transactions in less time, and reduce exposure to risk.
