New Electricity Supply Rate Options For Worcester Residents In This Program

WORCESTER, MA — Some residents and businesses will see lower energy prices in December, according to the city.

The Green Worcester ElectriCITY Aggregation Program, which gives people more choices for their electricity supply, will deliver lower prices for residents and businesses in December. That's because a new two-year electricity supply contract will take effect.

The program, which offers stable pricing, consumer protection, and reduced carbon emissions, offers three supply rate options. The options are:

• Standard Green – 15.32 ¢/kWh: Includes 40% additional renewable energy from local projects for a total of 67% green energy.
• 100% Green – 16.51 ¢/kWh: Provides 100% renewable electricity from local projects.
• Basic Green – 14.69 ¢/kWh: Includes 20% additional renewable energy for a total of 47% green energy.

The city said that its Standard and Basic Green prices are lower than National Grid's current residential Basic Service rate.

There's no action required for those already enrolled in the program, and updated prices will appear on January National Grid bills.
