If you're in Gabriels, you can compare plans from multiple providers and switch to one that fits your budget without changing anything about how your power is delivered.

To take advantage of this, you first need an active account with your local distribution utility.

1. Community solar is available to you right now, and New York makes it easy. Before you dive into electricity rates, it is worth knowing that New York has one of the most developed community solar programs in the United States. Any resident with a utility account, whether a renter or a homeowner, can subscribe to a portion of a local solar farm and receive automatic bill credits each month. No equipment, no installation, and no special roof is required. Many subscribers save money without changing anything else about how they use electricity.
2. Your monthly usage determines what you will actually pay. Advertised electricity rates in New York are calculated at three standard usage levels: 500 kWh per month for smaller homes and apartments, 1,000 kWh for mid-size households, and 2,000 kWh for larger homes. If you are not sure where you land, a recent utility bill will show your usage. The rate that matters most to you is the one closest to your typical monthly consumption.
3. Be prepared for a deposit if your credit is limited. When you sign up with a new electricity supplier, they may check your credit. Customers with excellent credit usually proceed without issue. If yours is average or poor, budget for a potential deposit in the $150 to $300 range. No-deposit prepaid plans exist specifically for customers who would rather avoid that step.
4. Switching suppliers does not change who shows up when your power goes out. In New York, your distribution utility, which may be ConEd, National Grid, NYSEG, PSEG Long Island, Central Hudson, Orange & Rockland, or RGE depending on where you live, remains fully responsible for your power lines, your meter, and your outage response. Choosing a new supplier only affects the supply portion of your bill, which represents roughly 60 to 70 percent of your total charges.
5. You will not find hidden fees buried in our rates. The plans listed for Gabriels on this site reflect your total per-kWh cost, utility charges included. There is no separate calculation required before you can compare.
6. The EFL is the most useful tool when comparing plans. Every licensed electricity supplier in New York is required to provide an Electricity Facts Label with each plan. The EFL shows your cost at three usage levels in plain language. Before you commit to any plan, pull up the EFL and confirm that the rate at your usage level is the one you are actually comparing.
