Program prices

The Green Worcester ElectriCITY Municipal Aggregation Program offers three options for your electricity supply. All three options provide more of your electricity supply from renewable sources than is required by state law.

If you are eligible for a low-income discount or fuel assistance, you continue to receive that benefit with no change as a participant in the Green Worcester ElectriCITY Municipal Aggregation Program.
