Your options

New program participants will be automatically enrolled in the 100% Green option and will receive 100% renewable electricity from a mix of sources within and outside of New England.

  • If you wish to receive 100% renewable electricity and to receive all of it from new renewable resources (MA Class I RECs), choose the New England Green option.
  • If you do not want 100% renewable electricity, choose Basic.

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts requires that all electricity supply products include a minimum of 59% from renewable energy resources in 2023. Basic meets this minimum requirement. 100% Green and New England Green exceed this requirement. The program’s electricity supplier is required to provide an energy mix disclosure label that offers details about all of the sources of electricity provided. Visit the Resources page to download the most recent label.

Electricity supplier: If you participate in Lexington’s Community Choice Program, you will see Constellation listed on your Eversource electric bill as your electricity supplier through December 2023. You will see First Point Power listed as your electricity supplier beginning with the Eversource electric bill you receive in early February 2024. See an example of an Eversource bill.

Change to New England Green

Why opt up to New England Green? Because buying local matters, even when it comes to electricity. When you opt up to the New England Green option, you’re buying all of your electricity from renewable energy projects in the New England region, which helps to create market demand for more of those projects on our local power grid and supports the local jobs that go with them.
