Addressing The Truths And Myths Of Energy Deregulation

The model legislation for Energy Deregulation was passed over eight years ago in Pennsylvania. At that point PECO Energy the energy provider in our area gave us a list of energy providers that were authorized by PECO for PECO customers to switch to if we had chosen. At that time advertising from outside energy companies were nearly nonexistent. Since January 1, 2011 this has all changed. Energy companies are now permitted to advertise and solicit their services competing with other energy companies and PECO Energy. This is a Win – Win for the consumer and the Energy Companies. As Energy Deregulation enters other states there are many other positive changes that will occur for those particular states, their consumers and the energy companies. Some states in this country are not producing enough electricity and other energy sources to provide for their needs. California is a prime example of this. California is working on their Deregulation Legislation as you read this entry. Other states have an abundance of energy products. By opening the markets to other Energy Companies who will be the companies that can provide the energy where it is needed, and to help ease the energy burden on the incumbent energy providers or generators in that state or area. Finally opening these markets to other companies allows a company like PECO (Exalon­) to offer energy products in other markets instead of only their designated operating areas.

How Does Energy Deregulation Work For Me?

First you need to understand who the Incumbent is. The incumbent is the energy provider (Generates the Electricity) and/or the distributor. In our case the Incumbent is PECO Energy. PECO themselves are not the energy generators. Exelon Corporation is the energy provider for PECO or the generating company. PECO ts a division of Exellon Corperation and is the retailer and the distributor in our area (Philadelphia and its Suburban counties). Since we can say that PECO is the retailer and the distributor we will call them the incumbent.

When you sign with a company like Ambit Energy you change providers. At the point you change providers your distribution company stays the same that is PECO Energy. This means PECO the company you have trusted for years to provide energy for you, will be distributing the energy to you (This will not change). When there is a power outage you still call PECO for servicing those particular needs.

When you go with a provider like Ambit Energy you go under the terms and conditions of that provider as far as pricing and benefits are concerned. This is how Ambit Energy in this case services you. (Go to Becoming An Ambit Energy Customer In Pennsylvania to find out more.) In all reality Ambit Energy is just a retailer. Ambit Energy buys the energy from another source and retailts it to you with the Ambit Energy Price Guarantee and its World Class Service. Then PECO distributes that energy to you and services your delivery needs, bringing Ambit Energy to your door. It is that simple.

What Happens To My Home When I Switch Providers?

Nothing! There are no meters to be switched. Nobody flicks a switch. You do not have to hire an electrition to change any wiring. There is no digging. No one comes to your house and hangs anything on the exterior or interior walls. “There is positively no interruption of your service at all!” PECO Energy simply reads the meter and you have switched over to Ambit Energy as your new provider.

Who sends me my bill?

PECO sends you your bill. As the distributor PECO takes care of this for you.

How Do I Understand My Energy Bill?

When you get your bill From PECO, it is itemized what services are paid to what party. Simply go to where it says Electric Residential Service – Current Period Detail (Page 2 of your bill), PECO will list Ambit Energy as your Provider, where it says Generation Charges. There you will see what the Ambit Energy charges will be to you. All those other charges belong to PECO for getting Ambit Energy’s service to your door. At this point is when you decide to stay with PECO for all your energy needs and just get electric, or have Ambit Energy provide you savings with The Ambit Energy Written Guarantee, and their World Class Service. The choice is yours with Energy Deregulation in Pennsylvania!!!
