Allentown Electricity FAQ
Common questions about electricity rates, plans, and suppliers in Allentown and the PPL service area.
How does electricity deregulation work in Allentown?
Allentown is part of Pennsylvania’s deregulated electricity market. PPL Electric Utilities is the electric distribution company (EDC) that owns the power lines and meters, but you choose which electric generation supplier (EGS) provides your electricity and at what rate. Suppliers compete for your business, which keeps Allentown rates competitive.
What is the cheapest rate right now?
As of April 5, 2026 @ 9:56 PM CT, the cheapest Allentown electricity rate is 8.89¢/kWh at 1,000 kWh usage, offered by American Power & Gas (American Power & Gas of Pennsylvania LLC 1 - 8.89¢). The average rate across all 132 available plans is 14.18¢/kWh. Rates are updated multiple times daily.
What is the average electric bill?
At the current average rate of 14.18¢/kWh, a Allentown home using 1,000 kWh/month pays approximately $142/month. Allentown homes average 800-1,000 kWh/month, with summer peaks driven by AC and winter peaks driven by electric heat.
