In-person meeting at the Free Library of Philadelphia Main Branch, Montgomery Auditorium

On March 28, 2024, PECO Energy Company (PECO) asked the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PUC) to increase rates for electric and natural gas distribution service. If the rate increase request is granted, PECO can collect an additional $575 million per year from its customers: $464 million (electric) and $111 million (gas). This would mean customers will be paying more than they ever have before. The PUC has scheduled 6 public input hearings to hear testimony from consumers about PECO’s proposed rate increases. The OCA encourages affected customers to participate in the public input hearings.
