How Electricity Choice Works in Beaver County
Your utility and your supplier are different.
In Pennsylvania's deregulated electricity market, the company that delivers power to your home is separate from the company that sells you the electricity itself. In Beaver County, Duquesne Lightis the distribution utility for every customer — but you have the legal right to choose your supplier from over 100 licensed competitors. Switching suppliers doesn't change Duquesne Light's service, your wires, or your reliability — only the generation portion of your bill changes.
Duquesne Light
Delivers electricity to your home. Maintains the wires, meters, and emergency response. Every Beaver County household uses Duquesne Light for distribution — this is not a choice.
The default rate you'd pay if you don't switch suppliers. Suppliers need to beat this to save you money.

How we calculate these numbers
Average rates are calculated from EIA Form 861 data for 2024, the most recent annual electricity utility data available. Duquesne Light's residential rate represents the all-in average price (generation, transmission, and distribution combined) across all residential customers. The Pennsylvania state average is calculated from EIA Form 826 monthly retail sales data for the same year, averaged across all months.
