Length of Your Commitment: Month-to-month. We will begin providing service to you after your utility processes our request to switch your service. The switch will not occur before the expiration of your “Right to Rescind” period. Our service will continue until either of us cancels the contract.           

Price: 

For Your Electricity: The introductory electric supply price you will receive during your first three billing cycles with us will be listed in your Welcome Confirmation. For your reference, our prices include generation charges, but they do not include any utility distribution charges or other utility fee or charge. If you enrolled in a plan with a percentage of green power, your price includes the cost for us to purchase Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs).
After the promotional period, your prices with us will be variable. We will determine the variable supply price in our discretion based on many different factors, which may include competitive prices, industry charges we are responsible for, applicable state and local taxes, profit margins, or other business conditions. Our current and historical prices are not an indicator of our future prices and we do not guarantee any savings. Our prices may be higher than your utility’s supply rate. No matter what, we will not increase your variable price in any given month by more than 30% from the prior month’s supply price. 

For Your Natural Gas: The introductory natural gas supply price you will receive during your first three billing cycles with us will be 5% lower than your utility's natural gas supply rate effective on the first day of each month for residential and commercial rate classes. For your reference, our prices include natural gas and supply, but they do not include any utility distribution charges or other utility fee or charge.

You will receive a Welcome Confirmation from us, which will include this contract, and you will have until midnight of the third business day after receipt of the Welcome Confirmation to rescind this contract by contacting us at the telephone number or email address listed below.

Your Right to Cancel: You may cancel this contract without having to pay any cancellation fee by calling us at our contact information listed below. We will request that the utility cancel your service with us, but the utility controls the effective date of your cancellation. The effective date is usually the next date that your meter is read after the utility has processed our request to cancel your service with us. If you do cancel this contract, you may forfeit some of the rewards that we describe in your Welcome Confirmation, and you will be responsible for unpaid balances as of the cancellation date.    

Our Right to Cancel: We have the right to cancel this contract for any reason as long as we give you fifteen days' written notice, but if we are canceling the contract due to your conduct or your breach of this contract, you will have an opportunity to fix this condition within the fifteen days.
