Central Maine Power

Did you know that Maine residents have a choice about which electricity supplier to use? Many homeowners continue to use Central Main Power (CMP) not because it's the best choice, but because they aren't aware of the options. Fortunately, it's easier than you may think to explore your options and make the switch.

Understanding Central Maine Power's Role in Maine's Electricity Market

Central Maine Power is the primary utility company for most of Maine. They're responsible for maintaining the electrical infrastructure that delivers power to your home. When you switch to an alternative electrical power supplier, like Nordic Energy, CMP still controls the physical delivery of electricity to your home and responds to outages or infrastructure problems. You use the same lines and equipment, which makes switching easy. The difference is that the alternative provider generates the electricity you use, feeds it into the grid, and charges you under a different pricing structure than CMP would.

Exploring Your Electricity Options in Maine

This option to change providers was made possible when Maine deregulated its energy market, detaching the generation of power from its transmission. This separation gives Maine residents the freedom to select an energy provider that may offer more affordable rates, better customer service, and additional benefits.

When you choose Nordic Energy as your supplier, we provide the electricity and deliver it to you through CMP's existing delivery system. If there's ever a problem or an outage due to infrastructure problems, you'll still contact CMP

Why Consider an Alternative Electricity Supplier in Maine?

Before deregulation, CMP didn't need to compete for customers at all. They still have the advantage of being the default provider. Alternative energy companies don't have this luxury. Providers like Nordic Energy have to earn business through competitive rates and exceptional service. This need to compete drives innovation and customer-focused solutions.
