FAQ · 44103

Common questions

Who is my electric utility in ZIP 44103?

The Illuminating Company is the delivery utility for ZIP 44103 (Cleveland). It delivers electricity, maintains wires/poles, and restores outages. Because Ohio has retail choice here, you pick a provider for the energy supply portion of your bill (or stay on the utility standard offer). Compare offers at Energy Choice Ohio Apples to Apples or WattKarma’s ZIP page.

Who do I call when the power goes out in 44103?

Call The Illuminating Company at 888-544-4877, or report/track outages via https://www.firstenergycorp.com/outages_help.html. Your competitive provider does not restore wires or poles. For a downed power line, stay far away and call 911 and the utility.

How do I compare electricity plans for 44103?

Use the PUCO Energy Choice Ohio Apples to Apples charts (https://energychoice.ohio.gov/) or WattKarma (https://wattkarma.com/zip/44103). Compare the provider supply price to the Price to Compare (PTC) on your utility bill at your expected kWh. Watch contract length, early-termination fees, and whether a governmental aggregation already covers your address.

What is the Price to Compare (PTC) on my Ohio electric bill?

The PTC is the utility’s generation price for utility standard offer customers. Use it as a benchmark when shopping Apples to Apples offers. If a provider's advertised rate is not lower than the PTC after fees and term length, staying on the utility standard offer (or your aggregation rate) may be better.

What is Energy Choice Ohio Apples to Apples?

Apples to Apples is the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) official comparison site for certified electric and natural gas provider offers in each utility territory. Shop and compare at energychoice.ohio.gov.

What is governmental aggregation in Ohio?

Many Ohio cities and counties run opt-out governmental aggregation: the community negotiates a provider rate for residents who do not opt out. Check mail notices, your city website, and your bill. Aggregation does not change your delivery utility or who restores outages.

Is electricity competitive (shoppable) in 44103?

Yes for typical investor-owned utility addresses served by The Illuminating Company. Delivery is regulated; supply is competitive via providers. Municipal utilities outside this delivery-utility footprint are not shoppable the same way — confirm your delivery utility on the bill.

How do I start water service in 44103?

Cleveland Water 216-664-3130; emergency 216-664-3060.

Who picks up trash in 44103?

Cleveland 311 / 216-664-2000 for waste collection.

Who provides natural gas in 44103, and what if I smell gas?

Dominion Energy Ohio / Enbridge Gas Ohio is the typical LDC for this metro. If you suspect a leak: leave immediately, avoid switches/flames/phones inside, then call 911 and 877-542-2630 from a safe place.
