The program, one of the largest in the country and a core
initiative in the city’s climate action plan, provides Bostonians
the option to directly reduce their own carbon footprint. This
initiative also helps the city achieve its carbon neutrality goals
through affordable, reliable and renewable electricity products
offered by Direct Energy.
With the addition of the City of Boston to its portfolio, Direct
Energy now provides renewable electricity to more than 24
municipalities and 400,000 customers in the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts.
The three products offered under the program include two options
with more renewable electricity content than the utility Basic
Service and at a lower cost. At $0.14805 per kWh, nearly 15% lower
than Eversource’s proposed rate, the Standard (Default) product
delivers 62.5% more Massachusetts Class I renewable power to
consumers than the utility product and the Massachusetts Renewable
Portfolio Standard. With the GREEN 100 product, at $0.17195 per
kWh, Direct Energy delivers 100% Massachusetts Class I renewable
electricity to consumers — more than three times the requirement
and at a rate below Eversource’s. Consumers who do not opt out of
the program will automatically receive the Standard product.
Consumers can choose to opt into either the Basic product or the
GREEN 100 product.
"We are privileged to serve Boston’s Community Choice
Electricity Program and appreciate Mayor Wu’s emphasis on bold and
scalable solutions to achieve the city’s carbon neutrality goals,”
said Bucky Gardner, General Manager, Direct Energy Massachusetts.
“The city’s program empowers electricity customers to make simple,
convenient choices that make a difference in their own lives, as
well as in their community.”
