Difference between a utility company and an energy provider

New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Connecticut all have deregulated energy markets, allowing consumers to purchase energy from their utility company or an independent supplier. Here’s how these companies differ:

• Utility companies are responsible for delivering electricity or natural gas to homes and businesses within their service territories. Utilities also maintain the local electric infrastructure and restore power after an outage. You can choose to purchase energy directly from your utility company in these states.
• An energy supplier is an independent company that sells electric or natural gas plans to consumers. These companies often compete for your business by offering low rates and unique plan features.

The price to compare (PTC) is the default price for electricity or natural gas offered by your utility company. Compare this rate against independent suppliers in your area to find the best deal. Here are Eversource’s current PTC rates:
