You can only switch the supply services. You can’t choose on the delivery services, that will always be eversource
The delivery services pays for the power lines, gas lines, transmission infrastructure, and physical aspect of the utility system
This would be like if you want to the gas station for $5 worth of gas and they broke the cost down to $2.50 for the actual gas and $2.50 for the gas station, delivery truck, pipelines, employees, etc.
You are still paying the same amount it’s just more transparent on your bill where the actual money is going

I would also add that the community choice options for municipalities often defaults you to a mix of renewable and traditional energy. If you are really struggling financially try switching to the community choice basic plan. It’s not a huge difference but every bit helps!
