Your National Grid bill 

Salem PowerChoice will be integrated into your existing National Grid electric bill.

  • Your Electricity Supply charge will be impacted by Salem PowerChoice. Electricity Supply is the part of the bill where you pay for the electricity you use. National Grid makes no profit from the electricity supply part of your bill.
  • Your Delivery Services charges will not be impacted by Salem PowerChoice. Delivery Services is the part of the bill where you pay National Grid to deliver your electricity and maintain the poles and wires. National Grid makes their profit from the Delivery Services part of your bill.

You will not receive any additional electric bills because of participating in Salem PowerChoice. 

If you do not already see an “Other Supplier Services” column on the first page of your bill, it will appear once your account is enrolled in the program, but this is not an additional charge. Learn more

Where to look on your bill:

Look for the Supply Services section at the bottom of the first page or the top of the second page.

  • Salem’s electricity supplier, First Point Power, will be listed on your bill as your electricity supplier. Look for Salem PowerChoice – First Point Power.
  • National Grid will use a Salem PowerChoice price as your Electricity Supply price. If the phrase “Basic Service Fixed” appears on your bill, it will change to “Electricity Supply” when your account is enrolled in the program.

Other changes on your bill

When you are enrolled in Salem PowerChoice or with a private electricity supplier, you will see one additional change on your bill: Your electricity supply charge will appear under an Other Supplier Service column on the first page of your bill. This is not an additional charge. This charge was previously integrated into the National Grid Services column when National Grid was your supplier.
