Welcome!

Program update:

Prices for all options in Canton Electricity Choice will decrease with September 2025 meter reads because of a regulatory change, which is also known as a change in law. Canton’s contract with the program’s electricity supplier, Constellation NewEnergy, allows a price change in the rare event of a regulatory change during the contract.

Canton Electricity Choice has three options, and prices for each will decrease by 0.27 ¢/kWh. See the new prices.

Canton Electricity Choice is a group electricity purchasing program from the Town of Canton for Canton residents and businesses. The program impacts the Supply charge on your Eversource electric bill.

Using the buying power of our community, Canton Electricity Choice provides:

  • More renewable energy in your electricity supply
  • Electricity supply prices that are stable through June 2026
  • Consumer protections without high pressure or fees

The program is a Town alternative to Eversource’s Basic Service and to other electricity offers in the marketplace.

Canton received state regulatory approval for the program in December 2023, and the program launched in June 2024.

Savings cannot be guaranteed

Please note that, while Canton Electricity Choice offers the potential for savings when compared with Eversource’s Basic Service price, there is no guarantee of savings. This is because Eversource’s fixed Basic Service prices change every 6 months for residential and small business customers and every 3 months for large business customers and future Eversource prices are not known.

Protect your electricity account number

Eversource will never knock on your door or call you to talk about your electricity bill.
Only provide your electricity account number if you are ready to change your electricity supplier.
