On June 1, 2021, PECO and PPL will raise their price-to-compare (PTC) rates. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paenergyratings.com\/companies\/peco\">PECO<\/a> PTC rate will rise to 6.323 cents per kWh from the current rate of 6.267 cents per kWh. The new rate will be effective through August 31, 2021. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paenergyratings.com\/companies\/ppl\">PPL<\/a> PTC rate will also increase, moving up to 7.544 cents per kWh from the current rate of 7.317 cents per kWh, and effective through November 30, 2021. But how are you supposed to save if your PECO or PPL rates rise June 1? Shop now!<\/p>\n<p>Assuming an average electricity consumer in PA uses\u00a0864 kWh per month. If we include the distribution charges, PECO customers could see the\u00a0average PECO bill hit $121.71 per month. Likewise, PPL customers could see their average <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paenergyratings.com\/resources\/high-pennsylvania-energy-bill\">electricity bills<\/a>\u00a0(which includes the distribution charge) rise to $120.55.<\/p>\n<p>The good news is that you can find much better competitive rates from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paenergyratings.com\/companies\">electric companies<\/a> in both the PECO and PPL areas and lock them in!<\/p>\n<h3>Find a Low Rate in PECO Area<\/h3>\n<p>The lowest rate electricity plan is the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paenergyratings.com\/plans\/frontier-utilities\/details\/pa-frontier-secure-power-12\">Frontier Utilities PA Frontier Secure Power 12<\/a><\/strong> plan.
