That's where we operate: identifying which of 30+ licensed retail energy suppliers is pricing your load size and usage pattern most aggressively right now.

How the Boston Electricity Market Works

Eversource MA (formerly NSTAR) serves Boston; ISO-NE Forward Capacity Market adds significant cost; some of highest commercial rates in country

Eversource MA, National Grid MA, Unitil, and Liberty Utilities are the main utilities

Boston businesses are part of the ISO-NE territory. ISO-NE manages wholesale electricity markets and system reliability. What happens in the wholesale market — capacity auctions, fuel costs, weather events — flows through to retail commercial rates. A broker tracks those conditions and advises on timing.

Current all-in commercial rates in Boston typically range 16–24 cents/kWh supply depending on load size, contract term, and market timing. Larger loads generally get more aggressive pricing because suppliers compete harder for them.

Load size matters to suppliers. Accounts using 50,000+ kWh/month typically see the most competitive pricing. Smaller accounts still benefit from the process — several suppliers specialize in small commercial.

Contract Structures for Boston Businesses

Three main pricing structures apply in the Boston market:

• Fixed-rate (12–36 months): Set price per kWh for the contract period. Best for budget certainty. Typical Boston range: 16–24 cents/kWh supply.
• Variable-rate: Floats with wholesale market each month. Lower in calm periods, but exposed to spikes. Generally not recommended for most commercial accounts.
• Indexed pricing: Priced against a published index (Day-Ahead market, NYMEX) plus a fixed adder. Transparent, but requires monitoring.
