    You’re allowed to buy electricity from a separate broker than your “power company”

    I’m curious about this, would you be willing to elaborate?

    Where I live we don’t have a choice of electricity providers for my home. Are you talking about states that have deregulated energy markets?

      Yes, they’re called retail electric suppliers. Some have offers to lock in a fixed Price for a year and others have variable rates. Then you can choose to have power billed separately from delivery or not.
