Changing your price never turns off your power or your gas.

Your utility still brings the power and gas to your home and sends the bill. Another company only sets the price.

ESCOs and utility supply prices, explained

What is an ESCO?

ESCO is New York's name for a company that sells you power or gas. Your utility, like Con Edison or National Grid, still delivers it and sends your bill.

Does New York have a Price to Compare?

No. Your utility's own supply price is the one to beat. It changes every month, for electric and for gas.

What is NY Power to Choose?

It is the New York Department of Public Service's list of ESCO offers. The offers on this page come from it.

What can an ESCO sell me?

A price that changes each month must save you money over the year compared with your utility, or the ESCO pays back the difference.

A locked price can be no more than 5% above what your utility charged on average over the last 12 months.
