Toledo energy deregulation
Energy choice came into effect in Ohio in 2001 as a result of Senate Bill 3. Prior to that point, electric customers in the Buckeye State weren’t able to shop around for energy plans. Instead, they had to purchase electricity from their local utility company.
Because of deregulation, Ohio residents and business owners can benefit from lower electricity rates. Energy suppliers are eager to earn consumers’ business, so they compete with one another to offer the best electricity rates in Toledo.
If you’re ready to explore electricity plans or switch your plan, it’s a good idea to use an online marketplace like Choose Energy to simplify the process. Our site provides a simple and seamless experience where you can compare electric rates in Toledo and lock in a great rate.
At Choose Energy, we understand that energy plan structures and terminology can be confusing. To help you better understand the deregulated market, we’ve created a number of educational articles and guides, including:
- How to find a no-deposit electricity plan
- What to do with your electricity service when you move
- How to change your electricity provider
Toledo Utility Companies & Energy Providers
As we’ve shared, energy customers in deregulated areas (like Toledo) have their choice of electricity suppliers. These are the companies that determine Toledo electricity rates and sell plans to consumers.
However, suppliers don’t deliver electricity to your home. Instead, these duties fall to utility companies, which are assigned based on where you live. In Toledo, your utility company is Toledo Edison. You should report any power outages or downed power lines to this company (and not your electricity provider).
If you’re in search of a new plan, there are plenty of Toledo electricity providers to choose from, including Constellation Energy. Enter your ZIP code to see the current rates in your area.
Toledo renewable energy
These days, many people are evaluating ways to reduce their carbon footprint. As a result, some energy consumers are opting for green electricity plans instead of traditional plans.
In Ohio, renewable energy sources represent a small (but growing) percentage of overall electricity production, with renewable resources accounting for 3% of the Buckeye State’s total electricity generation in 2019.
