Compare Electricity Rates in Akron, Ohio.

City of Akron Utilities and Suppliers

As an energy consumer in Akron, Ohio, you may not be paying the lowest available market rate. With EnergyPricing.com, you can compare supplier rates and find a new contract that works with your usage.

How Does Akron Electric Supply Work?

Ohio is one of 16 states in the U.S. with a deregulated energy market, and several suppliers provide power to the state. With many suppliers in one area, consumers get to choose which company to work with. Your supplier determines the rate you pay for electricity supply.

In Akron, Ohio Edison is your utility. They distribute the power your supplier provides and maintain your powerlines as long as you live in their service area. If you don’t have a separate supplier, Ohio Edison provides a Price to Compare (PTC), that changes throughout the year. When you compare supplier rates, this baseline can help you determine which prices are reasonable at that point in time.

If you’re ready to find a new supplier, you should find out when your current contract ends to avoid cancellation fees. When you commit to a new contract, you’ll choose a fixed, variable or block and index rate.

Fixed rates are consistent during your agreement, and variable rates fluctuate as the market changes. A block and index rate uses a fixed price up to a certain amount of usage. Beyond that point, the rate is variable.

Choose an Akron Electric Company at EnergyPricing.com

Researching suppliers or working with a traditional broker won’t give you a comprehensive list of rates. At EnergyPricing.com, we use a reverse auction process where suppliers bid for your business and drive down your rate.

We’ll set up the auction and compile suppliers in our network to participate in the bid. On the day of your auction, you can log into your account and watch in real time as your energy rates drop. You can start this process by requesting a custom quote. We’ll ask for:

• Your contact and business information.
• Your preferred start date and rate type.
• A recent energy bill.

When the bidding period ends, you’ll work with one of our energy advisors to understand your options. Whether you choose the lowest rate or the best overall contract, our transparent process will help you feel confident about your decision.
