Glacial Energy is a Electric Generation Supplier or EGS in the state of Pennsylvania providing reliable energy coupled with experienced customer services at the best price.

Pennsylvania Retail Electricity Market

Electric customers in Pennsylvania were among the very first in the United States to have the ability to choose the company that supplies their electricity. You may be able to choose your electric generation supplier (EGS) in areas where competitive electricity supplies are being offered. Consumers may be able to secure supply rates below the prices offered by their utility. Generation supply costs comprise the majority of the average electric bill. Consumers are encouraged to proactively engage competitive suppliers – whose price is unregulated by the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PUC) – to obtain pricing information for the generation portion of their bill. Competitive offers may not be available in all areas.

What are my power supply options?

Electricity is provided to you through a three-step process: generation, transmission/distribution, and supply. Electricity is still delivered over the same poles and wires and is not subject to choice. You now have the opportunity to compare prices, enjoy greater savings and choose a service that best fits your needs and preferences. Under the 1997 Electricity Generation Choice and Competition Act, electric rates were capped to ease the transition to competitive markets. As of January 1, 2011, all rate caps have expired.
