General Payment Information for Eversource CT Users

The current Price to Compare (default supply price) for Eversource utilities is $0.737 per kWh for electric transmission and $0.188 per therm for natural gas supply. In case you choose one of the competitive energy companies in the area, you may receive better pricing, uninterrupted delivery, and high-quality service. However, there is no guarantee that you will save money on the total energy costs for utilities, or lower your overall gas and electric bill amounts.

Eversource customers can purchase a deregulated electricity and natural gas plan from one of the several energy delivery companies in that region. Their selected suppliers will then work with Eversource CT, and the Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities to maintain energy efficiency, provide clean energy, offer lower delivery charges, and prevent interruptions in energy service delivery.

Does Eversource CT Have Payment Plan Options?

Eversource CT offers several ways to pay your utility bills. These include debit card payments, credit card payments, bank drafts, in-person payments, payments via mail, and phone payments.

Additionally, they provide two different payment options for residential customers to choose from:

  • Budget Billing – You can convert your variable billing into a fixed monthly payment based on your past annual utility usage.
  • Payment Assistance – You can choose from several assistance programs to help pay your bills and save energy. These include the Electric Assistance Program (EAP) and the (location-based) Neighbor Helping Neighbor program.

Furthermore, Eversource CT hosts various community action programs and provides home energy assessment services for customers undergoing financial hardship. Charitable agencies in the Eversource coverage areas regularly assist families in paying off their existing and/or past bills and provide guidance on more efficient energy use.

How to Lower Your Eversource CT Bill

Deregulated energy plans allow customers to choose from several rates from multiple competitive energy distributors and suppliers. Check the ‘Price to Compare’ — the default rate offered by Eversource CT — and compare it with licensed electricity supplier prices.

Arbor’s free TrueRate Protection service is the best way to ensure that you always pay the lowest rate against your current ‘Price to Compare.’

For example, Eversource CT's current electricity Price to Compare is 7.37 cents per kilowatt-hour. Arbor scans the electricity utility markets for the best rates and will find lower rates than your current supplier’s price. When your term is expiring, Arbor finds the best rate and switches you again. You always pay the best rate and never have to worry about overpaying for electricity ever again.

You can use the free savings calculator to find out how much you could save in each case. Electricity payments can be complicated, that's why a lot of people trust Arbor to manage their electricity service, so they end up saving on their energy bills.
