Enter your ZIP code and you'll see live supply rates from DPU-licensed competitive suppliers serving North Andover on the National Grid grid. Massachusetts deregulated retail electricity in 1997 under the Electric Utility Restructuring Act, overseen by the Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities (DPU). National Grid still delivers the power and handles billing, but the supply portion of your bill — often the largest line item — can come from any DPU-licensed competitive supplier. Compare each offer against National Grid's Basic Service rate, which is the default North Andover residents pay if they don't shop. Massachusetts also has a long history of supplier complaints, so check the DPU's enforcement record and look for monthly fees or post-introductory rate resets before signing.
The cheapest supply rate in North Andover typically lands between 12¢ and 18¢ per kWh from a DPU-licensed competitive supplier — Massachusetts has structurally higher electricity costs than most states because of constrained natural gas pipelines into New England. The honest comparison is the supplier's offer vs. National Grid's current Basic Service rate, which resets every six months for residential customers. Many North Andover households actually do better on Basic Service than on competitive supply once you account for monthly fees and post-introductory rate resets. Compare each offer's all-in total monthly cost at your real usage against Basic Service before signing — the DPU has flagged competitive supply for overcharging Massachusetts customers as a class.
Massachusetts doesn't have one flat statewide rate. North Andover sits in National Grid's service territory — one of three main investor-owned EDCs (Eversource, National Grid, plus National Grid Nantucket) — and each EDC has its own delivery charges and Basic Service rate set under DPU oversight. So a North Andover household pays different delivery rates than a Boston or Worcester household, even on the same supplier plan. The 1997 Restructuring Act opened the supply market to competition, but the wires side stays with National Grid and doesn't change when you switch suppliers. Some North Andover residents are also enrolled in a municipal aggregation program — check your bill before assuming you're on Basic Service.
