Now you have the power to select a provider from which to buy electricity.
When you choose a new electric provider, you are choosing the company that provides or sells you electricity ?a company called a Retail Electric Provider, or REP. These companies purchase electricity from competing power plants, and electricity is delivered to your home or business over the same poles and wires that are in your neighborhood today.
So What's Changed?
The actual delivery of the electricity ("transmission" and "distribution"), is still provided by your local utility, now called a Transmission and Distribution Service Provider. Your local TDSP will continue to maintain the poles and wires that deliver electricity to your home or business.
