electricity rates in nj are high, you can take a look at how many cents per kwh they charge.

although that can be kinda hard to do as they have different rates depending on how much kwh you use (ie: if you go over a certain amount they charge you more per kwh).

the other thing you can do is ask locals how much they pay for electric for a similarly sized apartment or house but those numbers can also be skewed by people with inefficient heating or cooling systems (ie: like the $150+ a month i was paying in electricity to heat a small one bedroom apartment that only had crappy electric baseboard heating)

I guess i didn't explain enough as to why i was asking. I finally decided to take the plunge with one of these companies that advertises to switch. So my PSE&G electric rate is around $0.11/kWh, and this company is $0.089/kWh. Gas is about 4 cents cheaper as well. but i thought i remembered a site on the state website that showed all the companies and their current rate....

What is the name of the company that is 10 times less per kWh?

Systrum energy. it's only 2 cents per kWh cheaper, but it doesn't require a contract so i figured as long as i pay attention, if they increase the rates, i just go back to PSEG.
