As your local electric company, we deliver electricity to your home, but we don’t own or operate the power plants where that electricity is generated. Electric suppliers handle that part of the process. In Pennsylvania, you can shop for a supplier based on price or other factors, or you’ll automatically pay the PPL Electric default rate.
If you do shop, beware of variable rates, which start small and then increase depending on the price of power.
Use the Price to Compare, or PPL Electric default rate, as a reference when shopping for electricity suppliers. This is the rate you’ll pay if you don’t shop or you’re on our OnTrack program.
If you’re already shopping, check the price you’re paying with your electricity supplier on your bill or the Account Summary page of your online profile and see how it compares to other offers.
Before selecting a supplier, ask a few questions about their offer: Will you charge a fixed or variable rate? How long is the contract term? Are there any cancellation fees?

Find a supplier that offers the service, energy source and price that’s right for you. When you sign up with a new supplier, they’ll notify us to make the switch.
If you have a current electricity supplier and want to return to the PPL Electric Default Rate, you’ll need to cancel with your supplier directly. Once your supplier is dropped, you’ll automatically return to default and pay the Price to Compare.
