PJM · Your Price to Compare resets December 1
It took the governor to stop it going higher.
The most recent PJM capacity auction only stopped at $325 per megawatt-day because Pennsylvania's governor negotiated a cap. Four years ago that number was $28.92. That's the price of keeping power on standby — and it lands on your bill before you use a single kilowatt-hour. Your Price to Compare resets December 1.

Why fixed
Your default rate has a
behavior problem.
It doesn't stand still.
PECO resets its Price to Compare twice a year — June 1 and December 1. December 2025 added 7.7%. June 2026 added another 5%. The next reset is December 1, 2026, and PPL and Duquesne change on their own schedules too.
Uncertainty is what you're buying now.
Unless you lock a rate, your supply price is set by a process you're not part of — and you find out what it did when the bill arrives. Over twelve months that can mean resets you never saw coming, each one priced before you could react.
One fixed number, twelve months.
One fixed supply rate. 12 months. Set on a two-minute call. The rate and the term are read to you out loud on a recorded verification before anything is authorized.
How it works, in three lines
- 1. Your bill has two halves.
- 2. Supply is the shoppable half.
- 3. That's the half a fixed rate applies to.
What it's worth
About two months of your electric bill. Every year.
Supply is roughly 55% of your bill and we model a 30% improvement on that half — about 1.98 months of the modelled bill per year. For the average Pennsylvania household that's roughly $348 a year. It's a model, not a promise — what you're buying is the rate and the term.

Three questions
See what a fixed rate looks like in Pennsylvania.
Are you the person named on the electric bill?
Only the account holder can authorize a change — that's a state rule, not ours.
How we operate
Six checks between you and a bad deal.
This industry has a reputation, and it earned it. Here's exactly what happens before we hand you to anyone.
If it doesn't, we tell you and stop. We don't route calls we can't serve.
Switching an account you don't hold is illegal. We check before we connect you.
A recorded third-party verification confirms your identity, the rate, the term and the terms — in your own words.
Out loud, on the recording, before anything is authorized. No fine print doing the talking.
Every choice market provides one after enrollment begins. We'll explain yours on the call.
Same delivery, same outage response, same bill. We say it because it's the question everyone asks.
Questions
The things you're actually wondering.
I shopped years ago and got burned by a teaser rate.
That's the industry's own doing, and it's exactly the product we don't place. The trap is a low introductory rate that rolls to variable after a few months. We place fixed twelve-month rates — one number, one term, and both read to you on a recording before anything is authorized. Ask for the post-term rate too; you should hear it before you agree.
If I switch, does my power ever get shut off?
No. Your utility remains responsible for delivering your electricity and restoring it after an outage, regardless of who supplies it. Changing suppliers is a billing change, not a service change. Nobody comes to your house and nothing is installed.
Can I cancel?
Every choice market provides a rescission or cooling-off window after enrollment starts, and the specific length is set by your state's public utility commission — it'll be read to you on the verification recording. After that window, fixed-term contracts may carry an early-termination fee, which is also disclosed on that recording before you agree to anything.
What does this cost me?
Nothing. There's no fee to use PowerRelief and no utility fee to switch suppliers. We're paid by the supplier when a household enrolls. You should know that, because it tells you what our incentive is: they only pay us for enrollments that stick, which is why we screen you out rather than push you through.
