If you lived in NY, PA, MD and a few other states, the electric companies have been "deregulated" and you are allowed to choose your supplier from as many as 20 different suppliers. Line service is still provided by the "local" electric company, but your bill comes from the supplier and they all have different rates from which to choose from. You can select to stay entirely with the "local" electric company but you will pay the highest possible cost with them in those deregulated states. I think that's what the OP is asking about.
