Save Money on Your Home Energy Costs
PPL Electric Utilities changed its generation service charge on March 1. The utility’s generation and transmission rates combined make up the “price to compare” for the purposes of shopping among alternative suppliers.
For residential customers, the new price to compare is now 7.237 cents per kilowatt-hour, down from 7.544 cents per kilowatt-hour. The small decrease to the price to compare for residential customers for the March through May period is due to lower market prices for power supply.
PPL Electric Utilities does not profit on the generation portion of customers’ bills. It merely passes along the cost of that supply to customers without markup. PPL Electric Utilities’ primary focus is on electric delivery, billing and customer service. PPL Electric Utilities encourages its customers to seek opportunities to save on power supply costs by shopping for deals with competitive electric suppliers.
ChamberChoice now offers a Residential Energy Program through OnDemand Energy available to Chamber member employees and their friends and family. This is a great way to bring value to your employees without touching your bottom line. The ChamberChoice price to compare off is 6.45 cents/kwh fixed until December 2014!
