New Hampshire PUC operates CompetitiveElectricity.com listing all certified suppliers. Eversource, Unitil, NH Electric Co-op, and Liberty Utilities all participate. NH supplier choice covers both electricity and gas. Locked supplier rates typically save 8 to 16 percent vs the utility default. The NH co-op (NH Electric Cooperative) is member-owned and runs slightly different procurement; co-op members should verify supplier eligibility before signing.

NH Electric Co-op rules

NH Electric Cooperative members participate in supplier choice but with slightly different procurement. The co-op aggregates members' default supply through co-op-negotiated contracts.

Co-op members can still switch to an individual competitive supplier. Verify supplier eligibility with the co-op before signing because not all suppliers serve co-op territory.
