|---|---|---|
| ⚡ Electricity | Rhode Island Energy | Providence |
Rhode Island Energy (formerly National Grid, now owned by PPL) delivered electricity at every sampled address across Providence, Cranston, Warwick, Pawtucket, East Providence and Woonsocket — the entirety of our Rhode Island sample. It's the simplest statewide pattern we've found: one delivery utility, no exceptions among the cities checked.
All six cities are flagged as deregulated markets, so Rhode Island Energy owns the wires and handles outages regardless, but you're free to shop for a competing electricity supplier anywhere in the state. Gas and water coverage isn't consistently confident yet in our sampling for these cities, so those accounts are worth confirming individually at the address level.
