Cleveland energy deregulation
Prior to deregulation, the electricity market in Ohio relied on a few monopolies that were overseen by the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO). Ohio lawmakers voted to deregulate the state’s energy industry through the passage of Senate Bill 3 in June 1999. Since then, consumers in the state have had the freedom to shop around for electricity and choose their own provider.
The Choose Energy marketplace helps residents find energy plans and prices available in their area. We’ve also compiled a few resources to help you learn more about deregulation:
Cleveland utility companies & energy providers
A utility company delivers your electricity to your home. Utility companies also install and maintain the electric infrastructure and respond to calls about outages and downed power lines. Consumers who don’t choose their own energy provider will receive service from their local utility. The utility company for Cleveland, OH residents is Cleveland Public Power.
An energy provider supplies the electricity that is delivered to your home. Popular energy providers available in Cleveland include Constellation and Public Power.
