Program prices

Swampscott Community Power offers three options. As a new participant, you will be automatically enrolled in Standard Green, which provides 100% of your electricity from renewable sources.

  • The New England Green option is available by request and provides 100% of your electricity from renewable sources in the New England region.
  • The Basic option is also available by request and provides the lowest price in the program.

As a participant in Swampscott Community Power, your electricity supplier will be NextEra Energy Services through November, changing to First Point Power with your November 2024 meter read.

If you are eligible for a low-income discount or fuel assistance, you continue to receive that benefit as a participant in Swampscott Community Power. If you have National Grid’s Budget Billing, it continues to apply to your whole bill.
