Who is the cheapest electricity provider in Philadelphia?

23 February 2012 3 Comments

I will be moving into a new house in Philadelphia near center city (zip code 19130) and am looking to find the cheapest electricity provider. It would also be great if anyone knew a way to compare rates of different providers as the house uses natural gas, water, and electricity. I am a college student so I want to find the cheapest utilities possible. Any adive and hel would be greatly apreciated.

    You will probably be stuck with PECO, one of the least efficiently run utilities in the country. Lots of luck.

    Water is provided by the city. It isn’t too bad. At least you will be getting Delaware River Water, rather than Schuylkill (pronounced "Skookill) Punch.

    I don’t know specifically about Philadelphia, but generally you have no choice in who provides these utilities. They are regulated monopolies, because the hard infrastructure that brings the utilities to you is usually owned by the utility. If someone else knows specifically about Philly, please disregard, but I think it unlikely they are different from most other places in the US.
