Now that PECO has announced its “price to compare” and with wholesale prices lower than they have been in several years, there’s no better time for business owners in southeastern Pennsylvania to shop around for electricity supply.

PPL EnergyPlus is ready to help commercial, industrial and institutional customers of PECO understand the coming competitive market and manage their energy costs with customized pricing that for most customers is lower than the PECO price to compare for default service.

Wholesale electricity prices for 2011 are about 20 percent lower now than they were in January and about 30 percent lower than they were at the start of 2009, when PECO began locking in energy supply for 2011.

“The opportunities for businesses are much clearer now that PECO has revealed its prices for customers who don’t take advantage of the opportunity to choose their own energy supplier,” said Gene Alessandrini, senior vice president of marketing for PPL EnergyPlus.

“We’re excited to work with businesses across southeastern Pennsylvania to find for them the best products and pricing options to make them more efficient and cost-effective for their customers,” Alessandrini said. “We can offer prices customized to the ways businesses use energy, rather than a one-size-fits-all rate under the utility’s default service option. Our knowledgeable team works with customers on solutions to meet their specific energy supply needs.”

PPL EnergyPlus can also provide specialized services such as energy efficiency programs, demand-response options and renewable energy options that are attractive to businesses looking to reduce energy costs and their environmental impact.

PPL EnergyPlus is already the energy supplier of choice for many businesses in areas of Pennsylvania where electricity rate caps have expired.

“No doubt that customers will be seeing mail boxes stuffed with fliers and incentives that claim to beat the local utility’s price to compare,” he said. “It’s important to understand the terms of any offer, have assurances that a supplier will be around after a contract is signed and that the supplier they choose is interested in having a solid business relationship with customers for the long haul. PPL EnergyPlus is that supplier.”
