Your rate
Pennsylvania is a retail-choice state: this utility's rate case sets the delivery part of your bill. The supply part comes from your chosen supplier or the default service rate.
Estimate your bill
It's on your bill, usually near the top. Starting at 750 kWh, the average for PECO homes.
This is an estimate. Uses the EIA average rate with a nominal $12 fixed charge; real tariffs have tiers, time-of-use pricing and riders. Your bill also includes taxes and fuel adjustments that change month to month.
Rate cases
| Docket | Status | Filed | Requested | Approved | Effective |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| R-2026-3060589 | Withdrawn | March 30, 2026 | 12.5% ($429.1M) | — |
R-2026-3060589: PECO filed on March 30, 2026 for a $429.1 million (about 9.3% of total revenue) electric distribution increase, which would have raised the average residential electric bill about $20.08 per month (12.5%) starting in 2027 for poles, wires, transformers, storm-response technology and grid reliability; a companion $81.3 million gas case was filed the same day. After pushback from customers and state leaders PECO petitioned to withdraw both cases in May 2026; its prior 2024 settlement had barred a new filing before March 16, 2026. Source
