Central Maine Power provides transmission and delivery of electricity. CMP is not a supplier and does not generate or sell electricity. The Maine Public Utility Commission chooses the Standard Offer (default) supplier using competitive bids to supply electricity at the best price.

Can I pay the same amount each month?
Yes! With our SimplePay budget plan, you will receive a bill each month for the same amount, making it easy to budget ahead. The amount will be an average of your bills from the last 12 months. Every six months we will review and make sure your bill is in line with the actual costs. The SimplePay plan goes great with our AutoPay service, since you'll know exactly how much to pay and when in advance. Learn more about SimplePay.
