The role of utilities in Lowell

In deregulated markets, energy suppliers and utility companies are separate entities with different responsibilities. You can choose your supplier, which is the company responsible for selling electricity and managing billing.

In contrast, you can’t choose which utility serves your home because it is assigned based on your location. The utility company delivers power to your home through electrical lines and responds to power outages. The main utility company in Lowell is National Grid (Massachusetts Electric).

Price to compare in Lowell

Lowell residents can choose to purchase electricity from the utility company or an alternative supplier. If you do not sign up for an energy plan, you’ll be enrolled in a plan with your utility under the default rate, which is called the Price to Compare (PTC). Utilities publicly share the PTC, so you can use it to determine whether it’s worth signing up for a cheaper rate with another supplier.

The current Lowell PTC with National Grid is 16.03 cents per kWh, valid through January 31, 2025. The SaveOnEnergy marketplace currently offers Lowell electricity rates starting at 13.79 cents per kWh as a cheaper option.

Types of plans in Lowell

When you enter your ZIP code on this page, you may notice a few different types of energy plans available in Lowell. The key to picking the right energy plan is considering your specific energy needs.

Fixed-rate plans

If you sign up for a fixed-rate plan, your energy price will stay the same for the duration of your contract. Most fixed-rate contracts last between 12 and 36 months, so these types of plans offer stability and more predictable bills.

Variable-rate plans

Variable-rate plans are the opposite of fixed-rate plans. Your electricity rate changes based on the wholesale cost of electricity. If demand for power goes up, your rate could suddenly increase. If energy demand is low, you may pay a cheaper rate.

No-deposit plans

Some energy suppliers require a deposit for customers with lower credit scores. If you want to avoid paying a deposit, you can search for no-deposit plans with SaveOnEnergy.

Green electricity

SaveOnEnergy features a variety of green electricity plans on our marketplace. Green energy plans let you invest in clean energy sources like wind power or solar energy without making significant lifestyle changes.
