How Electricity Choice Works in Union 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 Union County, PPL Electricis 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 PPL Electric's service, your wires, or your reliability — only the generation portion of your bill changes.
PPL Electric
Delivers electricity to your home. Maintains the wires, meters, and emergency response. Every Union County household uses PPL Electric 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.

What is Price to Compare?Your choice of 100+
Sells you the generation portion of your electricity. You can compare rates, contract terms, and green plans across 100+ licensed suppliers — and switch any time without service interruption.

Source: EIA Form 826, 2024
Union County residents pay an average of 16.99¢/kWh — 4.7% below the state average. PPL Electric's competitive generation pricing helps keep costs lower than many Pennsylvania utilities— but individual households can do meaningfully better by shopping competitive suppliers.
How we calculate these numbers
Average rates are calculated from EIA Form 861 data for 2024, the most recent annual electricity utility data available. PPL Electric'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.
