Hazleton, PA Electricity Rates & Electric Choice

Hazleton sits high on a ridge in southern Luzerne County — it's often called the Mountain City — with a downtown along Broad Street and Wyoming Street and neighborhoods of doubles and rowhouses built in the anthracite era. Today it's one of Pennsylvania's most diverse small cities, with a large Spanish-speaking community, and supplier salespeople regularly work its streets. In Pennsylvania you can generally choose an electric generation supplier (EGS) while your electric distribution company (EDC) delivers power and restores outages. The Luzerne County territory is PPL Electric / UGI Electric (split). Rate Raven is a subscription broker/advisor that monitors rates and helps you decide when switching makes sense — not a supplier.

Electric choice in Hazleton (Luzerne County)

Luzerne County is served by PPL Electric Utilities and UGI Electric, each with its own Price to Compare. Verify by address on your bill or PAPowerSwitch.

Know your rights before you say yes:

• Terms must be in writing. Suppliers provide a disclosure statement with price, term, fees, and renewal terms. Ask for it in a language you read comfortably.
• There's a cancellation window. Pennsylvania generally lets residential customers cancel a new supplier agreement within a short period after receiving the disclosure.
• Your account number is the key. Don't share it until you've decided to enroll.
• Your utility confirms any switch. If you get a confirmation you didn't expect, call your utility right away.

What to check on your Hazleton bill

1. Your EDC — PPL Electric or UGI Electric.
2. Default service or an EGS — and whether you agreed to any supplier listed.
3. The Price to Compare (PTC) for your utility and rate class.
4. Contract end date, exit fee, and fixed vs. variable pricing.
5. Assistance-program or budget-billing enrollment.

Keep your latest bill near the door. If a salesperson can't show how their price compares with the PTC printed on it, you don't need to decide anything.

When NOT to switch

• Someone asks for your account number before you've seen written terms.
• You don't fully understand the offer — ask for it in writing and take your time.
• You're mid-contract and the exit fee outweighs any gain.
• The offer doesn't clearly beat your PTC after fees and terms.
• You're in an assistance program and haven't checked its shopping rules.
• Default service is fine for now. There's no penalty for staying.
