The Marblehead Municipal Light Department serves the Town of Marblehead with safe, reliable and value-added electric service at competitive rates. The department is located in what was once the original light plant, a building that was completed in 1895.
Payments can be made by Direct Deposit, mail, or at nine drop boxes located throughout the community. See the town website for exact locations and a description of additional services. Also, those with plans to dig must first check with DigSafe.
Since 1908, the town of Shrewsbury has provided electric services to its residents. In 1983, the town added cable services and has provided the best quality service while keeping costs down for the residents. Shrewsbury also receives wholesale rates from providers and 5 percent of the cable revenue is returned to the town to help keep taxes low.
Founded in 1891, the city's power plant provides electricity at some of the region's lowest rates to approximately 25,000 people in Peabody and South Lynnfield. The facility, owned by Peabody residents, often helps the city avoid widespread outages. Five elected Municipal Light Plant commissioners oversee the day-to-day operations.
