About the Community Choice Program

Lexington’s Community Choice Program is an electricity aggregation program, which is a type of group electricity purchasing program for Lexington residents and businesses from the Town of Lexington.

Lexington’s Community Choice Program gives electricity customers in Lexington a Town alternative to Eversource’s Basic Service and to other electricity supply offers in the marketplace, cleaner electricity, and long-term, stable electricity supply prices (though savings compared with Eversource’s prices cannot be guaranteed).
