Traditionally, companies like Consumers Energy have provided all of the services needed to bring electricity to your home.
We buy the electricity (actually, we produce a lot of this electricity in our own generating plants).
We deliver the energy to your home or business and charge you for this service.
We make sure our delivery system -- a network of electric power lines -- is well-maintained and operates safely. If there are problems -- like when storms knock down power lines -- we’re the folks who show up to fix them.
With choice, you can shop around for your best deal, and select someone else to buy your electricity.
Whatever choice you make, we still deliver the electricity to your home or business. We still make sure the delivery system is maintained. And we still fix problems that might occur.
