Overview

Uxbridge Community Electricity is a program offered by the town of Uxbridge to provide new electricity supply options and more renewable energy to Uxbridge residents and businesses.

Uxbridge Community Electricity is the only electricity program offered by the Town – beware of look-alike offers and always look for the town seal on materials sent to you.

More Ways to Save! Discounts are available if you are a low-income customer. Last year National Grid provided customers options to reduce your bill using heat pump discounts. This year, National Grid is lowering its heat pump rates further, effective November 1. Learn more below.

In July 2024, the DPU issued new rules for aggregation plans. The Town is now revising its aggregation plan, to ensure that the plan aligns with the new rules. The Town is holding a 30-day public review period for its revised aggregation plan through October 31, 2026. You can read the updated plan here or at Town Hall, and provide comments through the contact form here.

Future savings compared to National Grid Basic Service cannot be guaranteed because future Basic Service prices change every six months for residential and commercial customers and every three months for industrial customers. See National Grid Basic Service supply prices for residential customers here and for business customers here.

The additional RECs qualify for MA Class I designation and come only from solar, wind, anaerobic digestion and low impact hydro. RECs are the accepted legal instrument used to track renewable energy generation and to substantiate claims of renewable energy use. Learn more about the product details and renewable energy content here.

Please note: Customers that opt-out of the program and then seek to re-join, as well as new medium, large and very large business customers joining the program, may be offered a market price, rather than the program price shown in the table above. Such market price will be offered by the electricity supplier in writing, and you will not be enrolled in that price unless you affirmatively accept. The market price will be based on current  wholesale prices and the supplier’s costs at the time the you seek to enroll, and the price will be fixed for the remainder of the Town’s contract with the supplier. At the start of the Town’s next supply contract, you will be transferred to the then-current program pricing.
