What Energy Switch MA is

The official electricity comparison site of the Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities, at energyswitchma.gov. A supplier has to be licensed by the DPU to sell electricity in Massachusetts.

Massachusetts opened supply to competition under the Electric Utility Restructuring Act of 1997. The site lists offers for your utility; compare any offer with your utility's Basic Service rate.

Common questions

Is this the official DPU site?

No. The official comparison site is energyswitchma.gov, run by the Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities. ElectricRates.org is a separate site. Offers here come from DPU-licensed suppliers.

Are the offers the same as on Energy Switch MA?

Not always. Offers here come from a supplier feed, not from Energy Switch MA, so the two lists can differ on a given day. Neither includes delivery charges, which are the same whichever supplier you pick.

Why use this page instead of Energy Switch MA?

It puts each utility’s Basic Service rate next to today’s lowest fixed offer, so you can see whether any offer is lower. Use Energy Switch MA if you want every listed offer.

What is Smart Enroll?

A free sign-up run by our partner Enroll Power. You don’t pick a plan. When Enroll Power processes your request, it picks the lowest fixed rate under your utility’s Basic Service rate. That may be a different offer than the one you saw. If no rate is lower, nothing changes yet.
