Energy Deregulation

Since the late 1990’s, when Electric and Gas deregulation came into existence, new competitive markets in several deregulated states have been opened up, where the customers have the power to choose their energy suppliers based on the rates being offered by these suppliers. The passing of the deregulation bill in various states meant that the Utility Companies had to unbundle the services they had been providing to the customers till now and sell off their generation assets while they had to purchase electricity and gas on the wholesale market alongside competitive retail suppliers. The responsibilities of the Utility Companies are currently restricted to delivery or distribution of energy, any maintenance requirement on the account and billing services for the account.

During the initial phase of deregulation, due to unavailability of competitive options, the customers were not able to switch their suppliers immediately. However, there has been a major turnaround in that situation in recent years, where multiple competitive suppliers have entered the retail energy market offering the customers a plethora of different rate plans and services which would help them make some significant savings on their monthly electric and gas bills. Click here to compare rates from competitive suppliers NOW.
