Cut Your Electric Bill With a Third‑Party Clean‑Energy Supplier

Most Massachusetts residents don’t realize they can shop for the “supply” portion of their electric bill. You still get one bill from the utility and the same reliable wires and poles, but you can choose who generates (and prices) your kilowatt‑hours. Opting for a renewable third‑party supplier is a fast, no‑hardware way to save money and shrink your carbon footprint.

Supply vs. Delivery 101

Every electric bill has two parts:

  • Delivery – This is handled by your utility (Eversource, National Grid, Unitil, etc.) and covers infrastructure: poles, wires, meters, and storm repairs. It's regulated and non-negotiable.

  • Supply – This is the actual electricity you use, measured in cents per kilowatt-hour (¢/kWh). You can stick with the utility’s default rate or shop around for a licensed third-party supplier.

When you switch suppliers, only the supply rate changes. Your electricity still arrives through the same wires, and you still call the utility if there’s an outage.

Five Reasons to Switch to a Clean‑Energy Supplier

  1. Competitive Pricing
    Renewable suppliers often secure long‑term generation contracts, beating volatile fossil‑fuel prices. That can translate into lower cents‑per‑kWh than the utility’s basic service.

  2. Predictable Fixed Rates
    The partners Energy A2Z works with offer fixed‑rate plans (typically 12–24 months) so you can budget with confidence and avoid seasonal rate spikes.

  3. Zero Hassle
    Switching is paperwork‑light—no credit check, no installer visit, no equipment. Your bill and service remain uninterrupted.

  4. Lower Carbon Footprint
    Sourcing from wind, solar, or hydro cuts greenhouse‑gas emissions and supports cleaner air across New England.

  5. Boost Renewable Growth
    Every new customer contract encourages developers to build more renewable projects, driving job creation and local economic benefits.

Quick fact: The suppliers in Energy A2Z’s network back their products with Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs), guaranteeing your dollars fund verified green generation.
