Rochester Gas and Electric Rates | Lower Your RG&E Electric Bill
Electric bills can be quite expensive if you live or own a business in upstate New York. The two most effective ways to lower your electric bill are to use less electricity and lock in a cheaper electric rate. Of course, we as consumers can control the amount of electricity we use. But before electricity deregulation passed in the state legislature, consumers had no control over their electric rate - they paid whatever their local utility company charged. Now, thanks to electricity deregulation, New York consumers have a choice. They can ignore the expensive electric rates of their local utility company and choose a more affordable electric supplier offering lower rates.
