We offer Massachusetts
customers a range of energy
products that are designed to meet
a wide variety of needs.
As of March 1st, 1998, the generation
component of electric service was unbundled
from the other components (transmission
and distribution) thereby opening up the
state to electric choice. Customers in
Massachusetts may now solicit competitive
suppliers, such as SUEZ Energy Resources NA,
for market-priced generation service.
The other components of electric service
(transmission and distribution) have not
been opened to competition and will continue
to be provided by the traditional electric
companies.
What
happens when you choose a new electricity
supplier:
- The new supplier notifies the old
supplier and utility that you have changed
suppliers.
- The new supplier transmits utility
account information to the utility in
order to enroll you as a customer.
- The utility confirms, by letter to
you, of your new supplier selection
and the date your new service begins.
- The actual change of supplier occurs
on the meter reading date following
a successful enrollment.
Customers
in Massachusetts are currently served
by either Standard Offer (customers of
record prior to March 1st, 1998) or Default
Service (customers of record post March
1st, 1998) or a competitive supplier such
as SUEZ Energy Resources NA. It is worth
noting that Standard Offer Service will
no longer exist as of March 1st, 2005.
