I worked for DLC in the area of electric suppliers. Normally I would say anyone coming to your door is a scam. But after some research this could be legit.

The company name is Inspire, not Aspire.

Their rates at PaPowerSwitch.com are competitive with DLC's default rate while offering their power from 100% renewable sources.

They offer fixed rates for various terms with no fees, which mean if you find a cheaper rate later you can always cancel.

Bottom line: Inspire Energy is not a scam and their rates are competitive But I can't say for sure the person coming to your door is offering the same deal you can get online.

What they're banking in is that you switch and never notice when the promo period expires, just like most 0% financing offers, or gym memberships.

Our group didn't have all the data but did a rough analysis and concluded most people were spending the same or more than the default rate.

DLC bids out the default rate throughout the year so it might not be the absolute cheapest, it's pretty competitive.

I would save about $10/month when I would switch after the introductory rate.
