No matter how efficient you become, you will likely still have some remaining electric and natural gas bills to pay. Luckily, you are able to neutralize these costs by paying the lowest electric and natural gas rates available to you.
The map below shows which states are regulated and deregulated for the procurement of electric and natural gas. If a state is deregulated, that means that individuals are allowed to shop the market for better energy prices instead of paying the default rate. As seen on the map below, Ohio is deregulated for both electric and natural gas.*
*Certain municipals and co-ops across Ohio are regulated and do not allow residents to shop for energy rates.
