They maintain over 50,000 miles of power lines in the state, and they’ve also earned awards from J.D. Power and Associates for their committed service to residents and business owners. PPL Electric Utilities has been in business since 1920, and with 100 years of experience, they have the skills to maintain electricity to neighborhoods in central and eastern Pennsylvania.

The Difference Between a Utility and a Supplier

PPL Electric Utilities is a utility company in Pennsylvania, making them in charge of electric delivery in their area. Retail Electric Providers (REPs) also known as suppliers provide the power to the utility to distribute. Since Pennsylvania has a deregulated energy market which means utility customers have the option to choose the supplier for their electricity.

While PPL energy services will handle your electrical concerns like outages and power line issues, your supplier will affect the rate you pay for the actual energy. In Pennsylvania, PPL Electric Utilities will provide a default rate, known as the Price to Compare (PTC) per kilowatt-hour (kWh).

For instance, the current PPL Electric Utilities price to compare for residential customers (RS rate class) is $0.07544/kWh (effective 6/1/2021 through 11/30/2021). The commercial (GS1 rate class) price to compare in PPL Electric Utilities is $0.07541/kWh (effective 6/1/2021 through 11/30/2021). If you are a commercial meter that uses over 100 kW in demand, you may likely be on real-time pricing with PPL. To review your rate class and current rate, please contact our energy experts to discuss at 800-225-3813.

If you do not opt in to switch to a supplier, the PTC is the cost PPL will charge you, and it’s based on what they pay for large amounts of energy on the wholesale market.
