Questions About Deregulation

When did deregulation begin?
Electricity deregulation began in the late 1990s when rates were capped on utility charges. Over the years, the developing concept was revised and improved. Now, electricity deregulation is offered in 15 states.

Why haven’t I heard of deregulation before?
Initially, electricity deregulation was mainly advertised to business owners. This is because businesses use more electricity than residences and, therefore, gained the most benefit from deregulation. In the past few years, however, more and more homeowners have voiced their desire for a lower electric bill. As a result, alternate energy providers like us have taken the initiative to inform homeowners and business-owners alike about the benefits of choosing your own electrical supplier.
