The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission is alerting consumers that electric generation prices for all PUC-regulated electric utilities will adjust on June 1 and all announced adjustments will increase the generation portion of electric bills for those who have not selected a competitive electric generation supplier (EGS). These changes adjust the “Price to Compare” (PTC), the cost per kilowatt-hour(kWh) charged by electric distribution companies (EDCs) to customers who have not selected a competitive EGS. This only affects customers receiving “default service” from their electric utility, not those who have a separate EGS. However, customers should be aware of broader market trends and prepare for potential impacts when their current contract ends. Electric generation costs are not regulated by the commission and may account for half of a total electric bill. Click here for the full list of June 1 price changes for residential Price to Compare, learn how to shop for an energy supplier, and what to do to prepare.  

Township officials are reminded that as a FREE member service, they may use PSATS Premier Partner  World Kinect Energy to shop for electricity for their township.
