How Are Utilities Like National Grid and Suppliers Different?
As an energy utility, National Grid maintains power lines and distributes energy to consumers in their specified service area. Your utility is also your point of contact for outages and other power issues in your area. Your supplier or Energy Supply Company (ESCO) provides the energy that National Grid distributes, and it determines the rate you pay.
In the state’s deregulated energy market, suppliers are constantly purchasing energy to keep up with supply and demand. With the energy market fluctuating regularly, ESCO rates are changing all the time. Even if your supplier had a low rate last year, that might not be the case when it comes time for your renewal. To keep up with the market and maintain a low rate, you need to compare suppliers.

Reverse Auctions at EnergyPricing.com Help You Save
When it’s time to research ESCOs to lower your rate, you can handle the comparison yourself or work with a broker, but these methods may not give you the most comprehensive comparison or the best rate. EnergyPricing.com offers an alternative approach that gives you a transparent comparison and drives down your rate. Comparing is not always an easy task. Collecting rates from supplier A to F can fluctuate greatly so it is important to receive all offers on the same day, with the same product type. If supplier A offers a product type different from supplier B, you are no longer reviewing apples to apples. EnergyPricing.com makes it easy to review rates in one location, on the same day, with the same product type. Feel confident in your next energy agreement when you partner with us.
