Your options

Electricity customers in Lincoln with Eversource’s Basic Service (meaning they have not signed their own contract an electricity supplier) will be automatically enrolled in the Lincoln Standard Green offering. You will receive an additional 27% of your electricity from clean, renewable sources like the sun and the wind, over and above the minimum amount required by state law, for a total of 45% renewable electricity from New England (MA Class I RECs).

  • If you want all of your electricity from clean, renewable sources (100% MA Class I RECs), choose the Lincoln 100% Green option.
  • If you want an additional 2% of your electricity to come from renewable sources for a total of 20%, choose the Lincoln Basic option.

Electricity supplier: If you participate in Lincoln Green Energy Choice, you will see First Point Power listed on your electricity bill as your electricity supplier. See an example National Grid bill.

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 for the most recent label.
