Understanding Your National Grid Electric Bill
Account Information
National Grid conveniently puts all the info you need to switch suppliers on the top left-hand corner of the second page of your electric bill. This includes your account number, among other important information.
Detail Of Current Charges
Most of your National Grid electric bill consists of a breakdown of all the charges that go into your bill.
On the bottom half of the first page, you will see a breakdown of all the delivery charges. These charges go to your utility provider (National Grid) and support the delivery of your electricity.
On the second page of your bill, you will find the supply charges. These charges are for the electricity you consume and go to your electricity supplier. This is also where you can find how much you're being charged for your electricity supply.
When you switch electricity suppliers, only the electricity supply portion of your bill is affected. National Grid still delivers your electricity so your delivery charges stay the same.
Usage Levels
On the second page right below your account information, you will find a graph depicting your usage history.
This section is helpful because you can use it to estimate future electric bills.
