How to switch your Fruitland electricity provider

Since Maryland's Electric Customer Choice and Competition Act passed in 1999, residents have gained the power to choose their electricity supplier rather than being locked into their local utility company.

Switching your electricity provider involves five straightforward steps:

• Compare rates from multiple suppliers using resources like MD Electric Choice website
• Select a plan that matches your needs (fixed-rate, variable-rate, or renewable)
• Enroll with your chosen supplier, who'll manage the change
• Review and confirm the written agreement from your supplier
• Wait 1-2 billing cycles for plan activation

You'll need to provide at least 72 hours notice for any service changes, and your local utility company will continue handling power distribution and infrastructure.

Fruitland's deregulated electricity market

The state's 1999 Electric Customer Choice and Competition Act divided the electricity industry into three segments:

• Transmission: High-voltage lines regulated by federal authorities
• Distribution: Local utilities maintain power lines to your home

Under this system, you can choose your electricity supplier while your local utility continues delivering power through their infrastructure.

When you don't select a retail supplier, you'll receive Standard Offer Service (SOS) from your utility at regulated rates.

Types of electricity plans in Fruitland, MD
