Program prices

Bellingham Power Choice offers two options.

As a new participant, you will be automatically enrolled in Power Choice Standard.
The Power Choice Green option is available by request and provides 100% of your electricity from new, renewable sources in the New England region.

As a participant in Bellingham Power Choice, your electricity supplier will be Gridwealth Electric.

If you are eligible for a low-income discount or fuel assistance, you continue to receive that benefit as a participant in Bellingham Power Choice.

If you have National Grid’s Budget Plan or Eversource’s Budget Billing, it continues to apply to your whole bill.

Bellingham Power Choice prices are fixed until December 2026.

What happens in December 2026?

The Town intends to sign a new, long-term contract when the contract with Gridwealth Electric expires. The Town will announce the new prices before they take effect, and your account will be automatically enrolled into the new price for your program option unless you opt out or choose a different option.
