Deregulated Maryland BGE Territory Results in Cheaper Electric Bills

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) September 27, 2010 -- Lower Electric Bill Today, an online provider of electricity information, news, rates, and statistics, is pleased to announce that Maryland’s Baltimore Gas & Electric customers can significantly reduce their electric bills by transferring service to an independent supplier offering reduced rates. BGE currently serves more than 1.2 million homes and businesses throughout Maryland, including all of Baltimore City.

Over a decade ago, Maryland officials chose to restructure the state’s energy industry to give consumers more choice. The initiative, called electricity deregulation, gave consumers the option to purchase electricity from a low-cost, independent supplier rather than a local utility company such as BGE. What resulted was a reduction in electric rates and energy bills across the state. Customer satisfaction also improved, as many independent electric suppliers offered clean energy alternatives and more consumer-friendly billing plans.

“Just as consumers have the option to choose the best auto insurer or cell phone company for their needs and budget, they can also choose to purchase low-cost, dependable electricity from an independent supplier,” said Christina Cleri, president of Lower Electric Bill Today. “Thanks to electricity deregulation, consumers are no longer limited to paying the overpriced electric rates of their local utility company. Now they have a choice, and that choice can result in a savings of up to 20% off their monthly electric bill.”

Current BGE customers can visit Lower Electric Bill Today to compare the electric rates, services, and promotions offered by carefully-selected Maryland electric suppliers, all of which are licensed by the Maryland Public Service Commission.

“At Lower Electric Bill Today, we don’t recommend just any Maryland electric supplier on the market,” Cleri said. “All suppliers that receive our recommendation have a history of reduced electric rates, excellent customer service ratings, flexible plans, and green energy options.”
