Program benefits

Two consumer-friendly options

Greenfield Light & Power offers two options. Both provide electricity that is 100% from renewable sources. With Budget Green, your electricity comes from a mix of renewable sources located both within and outside of New England. With Local Green, your electricity comes from renewable sources that are all located within the New England region, which supports local jobs and builds demand for more renewable energy on our local grid.

Greenfield Light & Power offers long-term prices, while Eversource’s prices change seasonally. Use the calculator to compare Greenfield Light & Power with Eversource’s current and average prices.

No interruption in service

Through Greenfield Light & Power, 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 Greenfield’s electric utility and continues to handle our billing, address power outages, and deliver our electricity with no interruption.

Eversource remains responsible for…

Delivering your electricity

Eversource continues to deliver your electricity with no interruption (and they are 100% OK with your participation in Greenfield Light & Power).

Sending your electric bill

Your electric bill continues to come from Eversource, and this is the only electric bill you receive as a participant in Greenfield Light & Power.

Accepting your electric bill payment

You continue to pay Eversource using whatever existing arrangement you have.

Addressing power outages

Call Eversource if your power goes out, as you do now.

Providing a low-income discount or fuel assistance

If you are eligible for these benefits, you continue to receive them with no change.

Providing bill credits or incentive payments from solar panels

You continue to receive your credits or payments, and participating in Greenfield Light & Power does not impact their calculation.

Applying bill credits from community solar to your bill

You continue to receive bill credits, and participating in Greenfield Light & Power does not change their calculation.

Applying Budget Billing to your bill

If you have Eversource's Budget Billing, it continues to apply to your total bill.

Most new accounts are eligible for automatic enrollment

Have Eversource’s Basic Service?

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 in the mail from the City in advance. See the most recent notice of automatic enrollment.

Have a private electricity supply contract?

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.

Make sure you’re enrolled

If you are enrolled, Greenfield Light & Power will be integrated into your existing Eversource electric bill. Your supplier will appear as FirstPointPower – Greenfield L&P. But you will not see any additional charges on your bill or receive any additional electric bills because of participating in the program.

Will you save money?

Maybe! The Budget Green option is currently lower than Eversource’s Basic Service prices. But Greenfield 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.
