Your utility — Eversource MA — handles physical delivery of electricity to your building. The supply portion of your bill, where competition applies, is separate. 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 Cambridge Electricity Market Works

Eversource MA serves Cambridge; same Con Edison-comparable rates as Boston; biotech and research energy intensity

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

Cambridge 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 Cambridge 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.

3. Translate the offers — You get plain-English comparisons of each offer: price, term, demand treatment, renewal terms, ETF structure.

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 Cambridge Businesses

Three main pricing structures apply in the Cambridge market:

• Fixed-rate (12–36 months): Set price per kWh for the contract period. Best for budget certainty. Typical Cambridge 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.
