Cheap electricity switched off

Connecticut offers homeowners four different suppliers from where to purchase their electricity:
1) CL&P
2) Levco Energy
3) Sterling Planet
4) Community Energy

CL&P offers the standard rate. Sterling and Community offer clean energy for a surcharge. Levco offers a rate discounted from that of CL&P. Unfortunately, as The Day (by Patricia Daddona) is reporting, Levco is not taking additional customers for the time being.

You can try again next year though. They're hoping to increase their customer base beyond the 38,000 households they currently serve. And for what it's worth, I used Levco for a couple years before switching to clean energy. I thought Levco was fine. I never noticed a thing.

But if you're interested in signing up for one of the two clean energy options,
