Q: How can NOCO save me money on my electricity?
A: There are two ways in which NOCO saves clients money on their electricity: First, NOCO Electric customers are exempt from the sales tax on the delivery portion of their bill and save the Gross Receipts Tax on the commodity portion of their bill. Second, NOCO is not a regulated utility with a rigid electricity purchase formula and a guaranteed profit margin. Accordingly we are free to buy electricity smarter than the utility and we operate on a substantially lower margin than the utility. Switch and Save!
