Bozrah Light & Power

About Us

The Bozrah Light and Power Company (BL&P) became a part of the Groton Utilities family of services on May 5, 1995. Groton Utilities purchased the former privately owned utility. BL&P is operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Groton Utilities and is now a part of the country’s public power community which includes some 2,000 municipally owned and operated utilities across the nation.

What is the big plug now found on such appliances as hair dryers?   It is either an appliance leakage circuit interrupter, an immersion detection circuit interrupter, or a ground fault circuit interrupter. They work in different ways, but are all intended to shut off the power to an appliance under an abnormal condition such as immersion of the appliance in liquid.

BL&P serves 3,000 customers, including all of the Town of Bozrah, Gilman, and parts of Lebanon, Franklin, Montville, and Salem.

BL&P has an aggressive economic development program and vast areas of commercial and industrial zoned land.

The Southeastern Connecticut Chamber of Commerce selected Groton Utilities as the recipient of an award for economic development for its acquisition of the Bozrah Light and Power Company. The award, which was for companies with more than $10 million in sales, cites Groton Utilities for “...opening new markets, making capital investments, creating new jobs, and providing continued growth in business.”

The Purchased Power Adjustment And Customer Bills

If the cost of energy is increased or decreased by our supplier due to a change in prices from the base, an appropriate adjustment shall be made for the sales of energy to each customer as approved by the Bozrah Utility Commission.

The Current Purchased Power Adjustment applicable for all rates is $0.044/kWh. This rate has remained in effect since August 2006.

The electric bill for a residential customer of BL&P averages between 21% and almost 24% below the CL&P residential pricing.
