They can but not all municipalities do. If you live outdide of a municipal electric company you are kind of screwed.
But still having a monopolistic energy company like vermont does help a lot during times of energy shortage because they are better able to negotiate prices. Even though during surplus times you may pay more.

Also in the vicinity of 200 non-municipal electric providing locales of the 351 total Massachusetts municipalities have engaged in aggregation contracts making for longer-term term price stability of more than a year, depending on when the contract was negotiated and whom is the provider, for consumer choice on power providers.
Municipal Aggregation.

Separately state-wide there is choice on power process, in towns without municipal electric companies. Service rates apply for transport distribution of power.
