Energy Procurement Made Simple
At Neighborhood Energy, we specialize in delivering customized energy procurement solutions that empower businesses and organizations to take control of their energy costs.
Where We Service
Deregulated energy markets in Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, and New Jersey provide consumers with the freedom to choose their electricity or natural gas supplier rather than being tied to a single utility. In these markets, utilities still handle the delivery of energy and maintenance of infrastructure, but the supply aspect is open to competition.
This system fosters a competitive marketplace where various energy providers offer diverse plans, such as fixed-rate or renewable energy options, allowing businesses and residents to select plans that best fit their needs. Deregulation encourages innovation, often leading to more cost-effective and environmentally friendly solutions.
Common Energy Broker Pain Points and How Neighborhood Energy Can Help
Rate Volatility?
Are you concerned about rate fluctuations each month, and how it affects the consistency of your business or municipal’s energy bills?
The energy market is inconsistent that can increase your energy bills at any given time. With a fixed supplier rate, your accounts will be less affected by these fluctuations and your energy bills can remain more consistent throughout the year.
Overwhelming Choices?
Do you feel overwhelmed with the amount of choices and whether you are locking in the right rate?
We hear you. There are a lot of energy brokers out there, and it can feel overwhelming to pick one. At Neighborhood Energy we are able to lock in low rates with our low overhead and great relationships with suppliers, and hard working staff.
Lack of Personalization?
Do you often feel that brokers don’t tailor plans to their specific needs or usage patterns?
By offering fixed-rate plans and personalized recommendations, we ensure our customers get reliable, cost-effective energy solutions that align with their unique circumstances. Neighborhood Energy also tailors plans by analyzing each customer's energy usage patterns and specific needs to create customized solutions with EnergyMAX.
Trust and Reliability Concerns?
Do you fear some brokers might overpromise savings or push contracts that benefit them more than the customer?
Neighborhood Energy understands every business is unique. We listen to your energy usage goals, assess your account type, and discuss several options with you so that we can make the best decision for your business or municipal needs.
Lack of Understanding and Transparency?

With monthly EnergyMAX reports, Neighborhood Energy provides you with transparent communication with the performance of your fixed rate against the utility.

Why Fixed-Rate Plans?
Protection Against Price Increases
Energy and utility rates can be volatile, fluctuating due to supply chain issues, seasonal demand, or market conditions. A fixed rate shields you from unexpected price hikes.
Budget Certainty
With a fixed rate, you know exactly how much you’ll be paying over the term of the contract, making it easier to plan and stick to a budget.
Potential Savings
If you lock in a rate when prices are low, you might save money over time compared to paying variable rates that could rise.
Why-Variable Rate Plans?
Potential for Lower Rates
Variable rates can decrease during periods of low energy demand or favorable market conditions, offering the opportunity to save money compared to fixed-rate plans.
Short-Term Flexibility
Variable-rate plans often come with no long-term contracts, allowing you to switch plans or providers without penalties if market rates change or their energy needs shift.
Market Responsiveness
With Neighborhood Energy’s knowledge about the energy market trends, you may prefer variable rates to take advantage of price drops, especially during off-peak seasons.
