Bensalem Township, PA Electricity Rates & Electric Choice

Bensalem Township sits in lower Bucks County along the Delaware River, bordered by Philadelphia's Northeast and crossed by Route 1, I-95, and the Turnpike. It's a busy, varied township of neighborhoods like Cornwells Heights, Andalusia, and Trevose, plus apartment communities, townhouses, and single-family streets — and mailboxes that fill up with supplier offers. In Pennsylvania you can generally choose an electric generation supplier (EGS) while your electric distribution company (EDC) delivers power and restores outages. The Bucks County territory is PECO / PPL Electric (split), and lower Bucks is generally PECO. Rate Raven is a subscription broker/advisor that monitors rates and helps you decide when switching makes sense — not a supplier.

Electric choice in Bensalem Township (Bucks County)

Most of Bucks County, including the Bensalem area, is PECO territory, with PPL Electric Utilities in parts of upper Bucks and a few boroughs running their own electric systems. Verify by address on your bill or PAPowerSwitch.

Comparing an offer, step by step:

• Find your PTC first. It's printed on your PECO bill.
• Read the disclosure, not the mailer. It shows price per kWh, term, monthly fees, and the exit fee.
• Add the fees in. Estimate the effective price at your typical monthly usage.
• Ask "then what?" Know exactly what happens when the term or intro period ends.

What to check on your Bensalem Township bill

1. Your EDC — expect PECO.
2. Default service or an EGS contract.
3. PECO's Price to Compare (PTC) for your rate class.
4. Contract end date, exit fee, and fixed vs. variable pricing.
5. Any renewable content or add-ons.

Keep one folder — paper or digital — for supplier mailers. Before your contract ends, compare only the two or three that clearly beat PECO's PTC after fees and toss the rest.

When NOT to switch

• The effective price after fees doesn't beat PECO's PTC.
• You can't tell what happens after the term ends.
• You're mid-contract and the exit fee outweighs the benefit.
• Default service is acceptable and simplicity matters.
• Your address isn't standard IOU service — confirm before shopping.
• You haven't compared apples to apples on term length and pricing type.
