Your options

New accounts in Sharon Power Choice will be automatically enrolled in the Sharon Power Choice Standard offering. You will receive an additional 20% 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 38% renewable electricity from New England (MA Class I RECs). Two additional options are available by request:

  • If you want all of your electricity from clean, renewable sources (100% MA Class I RECs), choose the Sharon Power Choice Green option.
  • If you do not want any additional renewable electricity beyond the minimum amount required by state law, choose the Sharon Power Choice Basic option.

Electricity supplier: If you participate in Sharon Power Choice, you will see Constellation listed on your electricity bill as your electricity supplier. Learn more about how the program will appear on your Eversource or 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. Check back for a link to the label.
