Narragansett Community Choice Electricity is our town’s electricity supply program, launched in May 2023. The Program aims to help our community members manage electricity costs, increase renewable energy use, and reduce carbon pollution.
If you receive a letter from the Program, you are likely a newly eligible customer. The Town is excited for you to join! Please contact us if you have any questions.

Our Electricity Options
The Narragansett Community Electricity program has announced new winter electricity supply prices to go into effect beginning with the November meter read. The new prices are fixed for six months and will be adjusted to summer rates in May 2024. Current participants do not need to take any action to remain in the program and receive the new pricing for the product in which they are currently enrolled.
Questions about the changes? Join a Zoom info session on Oct 4, 2023 7pm – 9pm or Oct 16, 2023 5:30pm – 7:30pm.
The table below summarizes the program’s residential options. For additional details, or for commercial and industrial pricing, see Electricity Options page here.

How It Works
Narragansett Community Electricity is a municipal electricity aggregation, operated by the Town of Narragansett, and authorized by R.I. Gen. Laws § 39-3-1.2.
There are two parts to your Rhode Island Energy electricity bill, (1) Supply Services, and (2) Delivery Services.

If you participate in Narragansett Community Electricity:
-

-
- The Supply Services portion of the Rhode Island Energy bill will change to reflect your participation in Narragansett’s program.
-
- Customers in the Low-Income Rate Class (A60) will continue to receive their current percentage discount on the entire electricity bill.
-
- Budget billing customers will continue to receive budget billing for their entire bill.
-
- Customers that receive solar electricity benefits from net metering credits and/or Renewable Energy Growth Program payments will continue to receive those benefits.
-
- You may leave the Program or switch to a different program option at any time, without penalty.
