Connecticut Electricity

On January 1, 2011 electricity customers of the utility Connecticut Light and Power (CL&P) who are on default generation service will see their rates drop from the 2010 prices.  Residential electric users who are still on default service will see their rates drop from $0.11051 to $0.0942 and small businesses will see a new rate of $0.10188 from the previous rate of $0.11723.

The lower rates are a result of the wholesale electric and gas markets dropping over the last year.  CL&P buys their power for their default customers on intervals.  A portion of the default rates were bought when wholesale prices were higher than they are today.  This means that electricity customers in Connecticut can still get an even lower rate than the new 2011 CLP default rates.

MX Energy is currently offering a 6 month rate of $0.0899 for residential customers.

Connecticut Commercial electric rates below $0.095 can be found here.

So far 32% of CL&P residential customers have switched off of default service and are using a competitive electric supplier.  54% of small businesses in the area have found more competitive electric offers.

Low CT Electric Rates

Connecticut Light and Power (CL&P) residential customers are finding lower electric rates in the Connecticut competitive electricity market.  Many CL&P residential customers have still not switched electricity suppliers because they are unaware of the savings and benefits of shopping for low electric rates.

Many electricity customers who have not switched are not well informed on the details of the Connecticut Electricity Restructuring Act.  The act allows for CL&P and United Illuminating (UI) to continue to control the delivery of the power and the billing.  These utility companies only offer supply electricity rates as a default service.  Connecticut customers who do switch electric companies continue to receive their monthly electric bill from CL&P, or UI, but instead of paying the higher default supply electric rate, they pay the new lower rate that they signed for with the alternative electricity company.

Visit our Electricity Prices page for current electric rates in Connecticut.

Both offers can be chosen online.  The fixed electric rate will require a commitment of 6 months.  The variable rate has no commitment, however the rate can go up at anytime.  We recommend the fixed rate offer at this time.

Compare Houston Electric Companies

Electricity prices in Houston and its surrounding cities have dropped to low levels.  When Houston residences compare electric companies they can find fixed electric rates under 10 cents per kilowatt hour for up to twelve months or even lower electric rates for shorter terms.

Houston commercial electric rates are in the six cent per kilowatt hour range for one year terms.  Just two years ago many commercial electricity customers were signing fixed electric rate contracts above 10 cents.  Though current longer term contracts (24 and above) are a little higher than short term (12 months and under) rates, many businesses are signing longer term electricity contracts in order to protect themselves from the potential of rising electricity costs in the coming years.

The electricity market is unpredictable causing many commercial electricity customers to want to limit their risks by locking in the lowest electric rate they can for the longest period of time.  The alternative can be seeing their electric bills double in a very short time period.

Residential electric customers in Houston are taking the same strategy signing fixed electric rates for as long as electricity companies will allow, which is usually 24 months.

Here are the lowest electric rate offers that we found in the Houston area:

PSEG Residential Electric Rates

Residential electricity customers in the PSE&G utility area are finding significant savings on the electric bills.  The summer of 2010 is the first summer in New Jersey where there has been real electricity choice for residential consumers.  Though power choices are still limited compared to some other deregulated states (Texas, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, New York, Maryland) New Jersey customers have found that energy deregulation can be a good when attempting to have lower electricity bills.

The lowest option for PSEG residential customers can always be found on our electricity prices page.  We have seen rates as low as  10.75 compared to the PSEG default price to compare rate of 12.24 for the summer months of June through September.  Bigger households have to pay even more as their rates rise to 13.21 cents per kilowatt hour after the consume 600 KWH every month, which is about how much a 1 bedroom apartment would use in the summer.  These results in savings between 12-19%.

Here are the current rates we found (updated daily):


PSE&G residential rates will be about 12.27 from October 2010 to May 2011.  What most people don’t realize is that even after you switch electric companies and start paying a lower rate, you remain a PSEG customer as they continue to monitor the lines and wires for the electricity and the billing component.  So at the end of the day, the only thing that changes is that you pay a lower New Jersey electric bill.

Though participation in the New Jersey electric choice program has been slow when considering the significant savings available, things have started to pick up as more people start to realize the electric savings potential.

Find Lower JCPL Electric Rates

Jersey Central Power and Light (JCPL) electricity customers are seeing some of the lowest electric rates since the utility deregulated back in 2003.

The basic generation service, the JCPL default rate, will be $0.110285 per kilowatt hour from October 1, 2010 through May 31, 2011 for small and medium businesses.  From now through the end of September it will be even higher at $0.115462.  Solid 10-15% exist for these businesses who shop and compare commercial electric companies.

Meanwhile, New Jersey residential electric customers in JCPL are paying high default rates of $0.1172 a kilowatt hour.  For the first time since 2003, these electricity customers can save money by finding a lower electric rate through a competitive electric company.

Residential and business customers can find their current default electric rates on their JCPL bill at the top next to BGS Energy Charges and BGS Transmission Charges.  The combination of these two charges make up the total price to compare default rate.  When you choose a lower priced electric provider, their low electric rate will take the place of those two charges.

Depending on the electricity company, you will continue to receive one monthly electric bill from JCPL with the lower rate, or you might receive a bill from the electricity company for the supply charges and one from JCPL for the delivery charges.  Either way, you will save money as long as you sign for a electric rate that is lower than the JCPL BGS default electric rate.

Commercial and industrial electric rates change on a daily basis.  For a list of low commercial electric rates in New Jersey email us with the request and we will email you back a list of electricity companies and their electric rates.

Compare Electricity Companies in Pennsylvania

Commercial and residential electricity customers have a number of options when it comes to choosing an electricity company for their supply rate in Pennsylvania.  In areas where the capped rates have already expired, such as PPL and Duquesne Light, there are over 20 electric providers actively offering service.  Choices are more limited in areas where the capped rates have not expired, such as PECO, but are expected to increase rapidly when those capped rates expire on December 31, 2010.

With so many options you might be wondering…..What should I look for in an electricity company?

Obviously the electric price is going to be the most important thing for most people, and that price is measured in a rate per kWh (kilowatt hour) which is the measurement for electricity usage.  For residential customers the Public Utility Commission does a good job of making the providers stay honest forcing them to include all components of the rate (including taxes) so that you can compare offers apples to apples.  However, there are some things the consumer should know:  Is the rate fixed or variable; Is there a meter charge; What is the cancellation fee; Can I reach a representative by phone or is everything done via email.  These are important questions to ask a electricity company when deciding whether or not the savings they are offering are going to be worth it to you.

As of the posting date of this article, the lowest residential fixed and variable rates are:

Current PPL Rates


Current PECO Rates:



The fixed rate will guarantee a residential customer savings over the utility default rate during the term of the agreement.  The variable rate will will not guarantee such savings, however the savings should be available for at least the near future unless unforeseen events occur that can disrupt the energy markets at the wholesale levels such as a natural disaster.  However, customers are not locked into a variable rate for any specific time period, so they can leave if the rate was to get higher than the default rate.

Commercial electricity customers have to worry about the above concerns plus a whole new set of possible traps.  Commercial companies have access to a variety of products and contract concessions that residential customers will not see.  If educated, these business energy consumers can greatly benefit from electric choice, but they need to be careful about traps that companies can insert into the electric contract.

Due to the fact that commercial customers are individually priced with electric providers, the “best price provider” for business electricity is constantly changing and is dependent on the customer’s specific usage demand patterns.  To get the best rate offer, a copy of a business electric bill is needed.

All in all, there are a number of electricity companies in the Pennsylvania market offering beneficial rates and contracts for both residential and commercial electric customers.  The more you understand about the electric competitive market, the more you will benefit.
