Can Ohio catering businesses choose their electricity supplier?

Yes. Ohio is a deregulated electricity market, which means catering businesses can shop for their own retail electricity supplier. WattKarma helps you compare available options at your location.

Will switching interrupt my business's service?

No. Switching electricity suppliers does not interrupt service. The physical delivery of electricity through your utility's lines never changes — only who bills you for the energy. Your business will remain powered throughout the switch, which typically takes effect at the start of your next billing cycle.

How long does it take to switch providers?

Enrollment through WattKarma typically takes under two minutes online. The actual switch to your new supplier usually takes effect at the start of your next billing cycle — you don't need to do anything after enrolling. We coordinate the transition.

Is WattKarma free to use?

Yes, completely free. WattKarma is a licensed energy broker. We receive a commission from the electricity supplier when you enroll — similar to how a travel agent works. You never pay us a fee directly. Our incentive is to help you find the best fit, because that's what earns your trust and business.

Catering Energy

Why catering businesses need the right electricity fit.

Catering kitchens use electricity in concentrated bursts during event prep, then require continuous cold storage between jobs — a unique usage pattern that affects plan fit.

Commercial Kitchen Equipment

Industrial ovens, steamers, and holding equipment draw high loads during prep periods leading up to events.

Cold Storage

Walk-in coolers and freezers store prepped food between events — running continuously even when the kitchen is quiet.

Event Logistics

Lighting, warmers, and equipment staging for on-site events may involve temporary or secondary commercial accounts.
