You may or may not have heard that the New York State Public Service Commission has deregulated electricity service in New York. ElectricRates would like to help you understand what this means for you as a consumer and show you how to use deregulation to your advantage. When electric companies are regulated, they can charge whatever they wish for their service because consumers have no choice but to pay their rates if they want to continue having electricity service. When deregulation steps in, however, it’s a whole new ball game as companies scramble to lower their rates in the hopes of gaining your business. It’s actually a beautiful thing!
Of course, even with deregulation each company still has the option of charging whatever they want, but it would be foolhardy of them not to pay attention to what the competition is. This is where ElectricRates can really help you get the best deal on New York electricity service. Use our online comparison tool to browse through the current rates of each electric service provider and choose the company that is best for you. Any and all surcharges or fees are calculated into the final rate so you can rest assured that the price you are quoted is the price you will pay.
