West Penn Power (FirstEnergy Pennsylvania)'s current price to compare is 12.076¢ per kWh for homes and 11.78¢ 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.

What This Means for Your Business
- It changes on West Penn Power'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 11.78¢ pays about $589 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. West Penn Power 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 and nonprofits (GS-V) pay the residential price.
