What is Energy Deregulation?

Old Way:

Prior to deregulation electricity was a regulated monopoly. Power plants, transmission, and distribution lines were all controlled by the electric utility within a protected service territory. Utilities dictated pricing subject to state regulation. Customers did not have a choice regarding utility or price.

New Way:

Power generation is now separated from exclusive utility control. Power is produced by several different companies within the Independent Service Operation (ISO) or brought into the ISO from a different location. Power is traded as a commodity on an hourly basis within the ISO based on market conditions at the time. Market forces now dictate the price of power.

How Does Deregulation Benefit Consumers?

Consumers can now choose their power supplier and pricing plan. By purchasing electricity when prices are low, consumers can achieve savings up to 20% from the traditional utility. Consumers can lock into Guaranteed Fixed Price contracts for the contract term. By locking to a Fixed Rate, the customer will not be subject to normal price increases during the contract term. In addition, the consumer can also take advantage of a "Floating Rate" which typically tracks below the utility price, so even if electricity prices are high, the consumer can enjoy immediate savings.
