We have recently been informed that PPL Electric Utilities’ Price to Compare is scheduled to increase effective December 1, pending regulatory approval.

The new default electricity supply rates will be:

- Residential customers: 14.428¢ per kWh
- Small business customers: 12.335¢ per kWh

If you receive your electricity supply through PPL rather than a competitive supplier, this is the rate you pay for electricity supply.

With energy costs impacting household budgets, there are resources available to help!

PPL customers can:

- Find ways to manage their bill through PPL's Bill Toolkit (🔗 pplelectric.com/toolkit ), including budget billing, PPL Alerts, energy-saving resources and payment assistance.
- Get help paying their bill through programs including OnTrack, Operation HELP, WRAP and LIHEAP.
- Compare electricity supply options by using the Price to Compare as a benchmark and carefully reviewing competitive supplier offers through PA Power Switch (🔗 www.papowerswitch.com/ ) .

Share these resources with friends, family and neighbors who may benefit! ... See MoreSee Less
