Program news

Lexington’s Community Choice Program will offer new prices starting in January with lower prices for most participants. The changes will be effective with the start of a new 36-month electricity supply contract with Constellation, which will take effect as the current contract with Constellation ends, and will provide 3 years of electricity price stability. No action is required from electricity customers currently enrolled in Lexington’s Community Choice Program. All active program participants will be automatically enrolled into the new contract with Constellation with their December 2020 meter read, and they will be enrolled in the same program option they have in the current Constellation contract.

Check back for the complete announcement from Lexington.

All new Eversource electricity accounts will be automatically enrolled in the 100% Green option and will receive 100% renewable electricity, unless they choose a different option or opt out of the program. 100% Green includes 5% from renewable energy projects in New England in addition to the minimum amount required by state law.

  • If you want 100% renewable energy all from New England-based renewable energy projects, choose New England Green.
  • If you do not want 100% renewable energy, choose Basic.

Electricity supplier: If you participate in Lexington’s Community Choice Program, you will see Constellation listed on your Eversource electricity bill as your electricity supplier.

Electricity mix: The program’s electricity supplier is required to provide an energy mix disclosure label that offers details about all of the sources of electricity provided. Visit the Resources page to download the most recent label.
