For Pennsylvania customers served by PECO and PPL, the utility’s price to compare is a benchmark you should beat when shopping for suppliers. This per‑kWh rate represents the default supply cost. As of 2025, PPL’s 24‑month average rate is around 16.38 ¢/kWh, with some plans as low as 13.24 ¢/kWh, while PECO’s rates vary by season. To save money, compare supplier offers to this benchmark and consider switching when your contract is expiring or when utilities announce price increases. Utilities typically update their price to compare every few months, so watch for changes and act accordingly.
