The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission reported that 1,835,051 business and residential utility customers have switched to a new electric generation supplier since 2011. That represents 32.5 percent of the state’s power customers. Alternative suppliers currently deliver 58.6 percent of the state’s load of megawatt hours.
The Electricity Generation Customer Choice and Competition Act was enacted in 1999 in Pennsylvania. The act allows Pennsylvania consumers to choose between competitive electricity providers based on their energy use and price requirements.

Want to save money on energy?
Leave heating and cooling vents uncovered by furniture, rugs and planters. Obstructions will make your heating and air conditioning work harder.
In the summer, take advantage of breezy days and open windows when you can, to limit air conditioner use.
Consider buying and installing a modern, programmable thermostat. These can be programmed to adjust the heating and cooling in your home depending on when you work, sleep and travel.
When air conditioning and heating systems make strange noises or slow down, arrange service promptly. Malfunctioning systems are usually also wasteful systems.
