Is my Price to Compare beatable

On 2026-11-13 a 12-month fixed-rate offer under the Price to Compare was listed on PAPowerSwitch for 8 of the 8 distribution companies with such offers: PECO (11.759¢/kWh default, cheapest fixed 12-month 10.19¢/kWh from Better Buy Energy); PPL Electric Utilities (13.079¢/kWh default, cheapest fixed 12-month 12.35¢/kWh from City Power & Gas PA); Duquesne Light (14.14¢/kWh default, cheapest fixed 12-month 13.10¢/kWh from CleanChoice Energy); Met-Ed (13.951¢/kWh default, cheapest fixed 12-month 12.89¢/kWh from Better Buy Energy); Penelec (13.142¢/kWh default, cheapest fixed 12-month 12.89¢/kWh from Better Buy Energy); Penn Power (13.477¢/kWh default, cheapest fixed 12-month 13.00¢/kWh from Cirro Energy); West Penn Power (12.075¢/kWh default, cheapest fixed 12-month 11.79¢/kWh from Better Buy Energy); UGI (12.615¢/kWh default, cheapest fixed 12-month 11.82¢/kWh from City Power & Gas PA). Citizens' Electric, Wellsboro Electric and Pike County Light & Power have no 12-month fixed offer listed, so the Price to Compare is what a customer there pays.

The Price to Compare is the generation price you pay by default; a supplier's offer replaces only that part of the bill. The comparison here is the cheapest 12-month fixed-rate offer, the shape that holds its price for a year, against each utility's current default; a variable-rate offer can be lower this month and higher next. Each utility's figure and the day it was last updated are in the questions below.
