Certain FirstEnergy Pennsylvania Mass Market Prices To Compare Increasing 9-10%
The following story is brought free of charge to readers by VertexOne, the exclusive EDI provider of EnergyChoiceMatters.com
FirstEnergy Pennsylvania has filed with the Pennsylvania PUC new PTCDefault rates to be in effect for the six-month period June 1, 2025 through November 30, 2025
The PTCDefault rate is the all-in cost of default service prior to the application of the state tax adjustment surcharge (STAS).
While historically the STAS at the FirstEnergy Pennsylvania utilities has been 0%, as previously reported, a de minimis STAS (less than 0.1%, either positive or negative, with the specific rate varying by service area, took effect on December 1, 2024).
Accordingly, the PTCDefault rate is no longer the same as the official Price to Compare due to the application of the STAS
Although PA Power Switch does not currently appear to list STAS-adjusted Prices to Compare for the FirstEnergy utilities, the FirstEnergy utilities' listing of the Price to Compare on the utilities' website does list the Price to Compare as including the STAS. For the current rates, the difference between the PTCDefault rate and STAS-adjusted Prices to Compare is less than 1 mill per kWh
As detailed further below, all mass market PTCDefault rates are increasing by at least 5% on June 1, 2025, with certain rates increasing by about 10%
The new PTCDefault rates, as filed by FirstEnergy Pennsylvania, are below.
