Welcome!

  • Consumer protections without high pressure or fees

The program is a Town alternative to Eversource’s Basic Service and to other electricity offers in the marketplace.

How it works

 Wayland Electricity Choice is a group electricity purchasing program.

Savings cannot be guaranteed

Please note that, while Wayland Electricity Choice offers the potential for savings when compared with Eversource’s Basic Service price, there is no guarantee of savings. This is because Eversource’s fixed Basic Service prices change every 6 months for residential and small business customers and every 3 months for large business customers and future Eversource prices are not known.

Protect your Eversource account number

Eversource will never knock on your door or call you to talk about your electricity bill.
Only provide your electricity account number if you are ready to change your electricity supplier.
