Chelsea Electricity Choice offers three options for the electricity supply part of your Eversource bill. As a new participant, you will be automatically enrolled in Chelsea Basic and will receive the lowest price in the program. Two other options are available by request: Chelsea Standard provides 85% of your electricity from renewable sources, and Chelsea 100% Green provides 100% of your electricity from renewable sources. Make the choice that’s right for you!

Through Chelsea Electricity Choice, the City has selected First Point Power as our electricity supplier (the company that puts electricity on the grid for us) and locked in long-term pricing for the electricity supply charge on our bills. But Eversource remains Chelsea’s electric utility and continues to handle our billing, address power outages, and deliver our electricity with no interruption. Learn more about how aggregation works.
If you did not sign a private electricity supply contract, you have Eversource’s Basic Service. New accounts on Basic Service (except those with a customer-initiated block) are eligible for automatic enrollment. The automatic enrollment process happens on a roughly quarterly basis throughout the year. All similar programs throughout the state use an automatic enrollment model, but you are free to opt out before being automatically enrolled. You will receive a notification from the City in the mail in advance. See the notice of automatic enrollment.
If you signed a private electricity supply contract, your account will not be eligible for automatic enrollment, but you can request enrollment online or by contacting customer support with our program consultants. (Restrictions apply for large business accounts.) We recommend that you carefully check the terms and conditions of your supplier agreement. Your ability to terminate your agreement with your supplier may be restricted. Learn more.
If you are enrolled, Chelsea Electricity Choice will be integrated into your existing Eversource electric bill. Your supplier will appear as Chelsea Electricity Ch-First Point. But you will not see any additional charges on your bill or receive any additional electric bills because of participating in the program.
Maybe! All Chelsea Electricity Choice prices are lower than Eversource’s current residential and small business electricity supply prices. But Chelsea cannot guarantee that program prices will always be lower than Eversource because Eversource’s prices change seasonally, and we do not know their future prices.
Eversource will never knock on your door or call you to talk about your electric bill.
Only provide your Eversource account number if you are ready to change your electricity supplier.
