Met-Ed (FirstEnergy Pennsylvania)'s current price to compare is 13.954¢ per kWh for homes and 12.867¢ for small businesses. That's the price you pay for electricity supply if you haven't chosen a supplier, and it's the number any supplier offer has to beat.
I keep this page current from Met-Ed's own published figures, so you can check it before you shop.

What This Means for Your Business
- It changes on Met-Ed's schedule, not yours. A fixed price from a licensed supplier locks the number for the term you choose.
- What it's worth: A business using 5,000 kWh a month at 12.867¢ pays about $643 a month for supply alone. Every 1¢ per kWh a supplier can beat that by is worth about $50 a month, or $600 a year, at that usage.
- It's a benchmark, not a quote. Licensed suppliers price your actual account. Whether an offer beats it depends on your usage, start date, and term.
- Capacity matters for bigger accounts. Met-Ed is in PJM, where capacity costs are part of what you pay. Check how any contract handles them. Here's the story on PJM capacity.
- Volunteer fire companies pay the residential price (13.954¢).

- Compare the price per kWh for supply only.
- Check the term, the end date, and what happens when the contract ends.
