As a result of government deregulation of the largest public utility you now have a right to chose your supplier of gas and electric in currently deregulated states. The utility is Generated - Delivered & Supplied three separate parts. The incumbent energy companies like PSEG were only allowed to keep one of the three. They chose the delivery because they own and maintain the infrastructure used to deliver this commodity. This is the first part of your bill the delivery charge. The second part is the cost of the actual supply of gas and electric. There are over a dozen ESCO's (Energy Supply Companies) that you can shop for a better rate.

Companies like Direct Energy go door to door, use telemarketing, and mailers to solicit you as customer. Some of them tend to be very aggressive trying to get you to commit on the spot. They usually lock you into a contract for 1-2 years at a rate. If you try and switch they hit you with a cancelation fee. Read the fine print.

I am an independent consultant with a company called Ambit Energy that uses word of mouth instead of traditional forms of marketing. We have no contracts and offer a free energy program showing you how to eliminate the supply portion of your bill (Gas&Electric). Nothing changes, there is no cost to switch, no inconvenience, the only thing that changes is that you now pay less for a bill you already have to pay.

Not many people are familiar with deregulation and tend to think it's a scam. Do the research yourself.
