Community Choice Energy Program

Following the approval of Order 7109 by the City Council in December 2022, the City of Springfield developed and published its Aggregation Plan (“Plan”) in compliance with Massachusetts law regarding municipal aggregation of electric consumers (M.G.L. c. 164, § 134). The City Council approved the Plan in June 2024, and a power supply agreement was executed and took effect December 2025.  The City of Springfield has selected First Point Power (“First Point”) as the supplier for Springfield's Community Choice Power Supply Program. First Point will provide electric power supply for all consumers currently on Eversource Basic Service in Springfield.

*Eversource Rates listed are effective 2/1/26

IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO PARTICIPATE YOU MUST OPT-OUT by visiting colonialpowergroup.com/springfield, click the OPT-OUT button and follow the instructions specified OR call First Point at (888) 875-1711. There is NO CHARGE TO OPT-OUT of the Program and return to Eversource Basic Service.

CONSUMERS THAT ALREADY HAVE 3RD PARTY SUPPLY you may OPT-IN at colonialpowergroup.com/springfield OR call First Point at (888) 875-1711 and ask to be enrolled. If you are currently contracted with your own supplier, you should confirm with them that you will not incur any early termination fees or penalties for leaving their supply.

Basic Service rates change twice a year or more, depending on rate class. As a result, the aggregation rate may not always be lower than the Basic Service rate. The goal of the aggregation is to deliver savings over the life of the Program against Eversource Basic Service. However, future savings cannot be guaranteed.
