What is National Grid?

National Grid is an electric utility serving Worcester, Central MA, North Shore, Cape Cod in Massachusetts. Under Massachusetts' competitive supply program established by the 1997 Electric Utility Restructuring Act, National Grid customers can choose their electricity supplier while National Grid continues to deliver power, maintain infrastructure, and respond to outages.

Will switching suppliers affect my National Grid service reliability?

No. National Grid continues to deliver electricity and respond to outages regardless of your supplier choice. Only the supply portion of your bill changes—delivery, infrastructure, and emergency services remain exactly the same.

How do I find my Basic Service rate on my National Grid bill?

Your Basic Service rate appears on your National Grid bill under the 'Supply' or 'Basic Service' section. This is the rate you're currently paying for electricity generation. Compare this rate with competitive supplier offers to find potential savings.

How long does it take to switch suppliers with National Grid?

Typically 1-2 billing cycles (2-4 weeks). The switch happens automatically with no service interruption. National Grid handles the meter reading transition, and you'll see the new supplier charges on your next bill after the switch is complete.
