How electricity choice works in Collingdale

What is the Price to Compare for PECO Energy customers?
The Price to Compare (PTC) is PECO Energy's default generation rate for customers who don't choose a supplier. It changes quarterly based on wholesale market prices.

How we collect this data

Rate data is sourced from PA Power Switch, the official Pennsylvania PUC marketplace, and refreshed weekly. Volt Butler is an independent comparison site — we don't accept payments from suppliers to rank them higher.
