Questions
to Ask Electricity Suppliers
The
thought of choosing an electricity supplier may seem
overwhelming at first, but it doesn't have to be.
By knowing what you need and want from an electricity
supplier and asking informed questions, you will be
able to find a supplier that can save you money on your
electricity and create a deal that will suit your needs.
Keep in mind that different suppliers will offer different
services and different customers have different needs.
Here are some ideas for questions to ask potential suppliers:
-
Are
you registered as a supplier with the Pennsylvania
Public Utilities Commission?
-
How
long have you been in the power supply business?
-
What
is your rate per kilowatt-hour?
-
Is
this rate fixed, or will it vary? If I use
more, does the price go down?
-
Are
there other fees beside the per-kilowatt-hour rate
that you will charge me?
-
Am
I required to sign a contract? If yes, for
what length of time? What are the other terms
of the contract?
-
Are
there any restrictions on my electricity use?
If so, why?
-
Will
you charge me a fee if I switch from you to another
supplier?
-
How
does your billing system work? What are my
payment options?
-
What
other services besides just electric generation
can you offer me?
-
Is
your electricity generated in Pennsylvania or imported
from elsewhere?
