Deregulation of electricity generation in Pennsylvania means that each electricity customer has the opportunity to select a supplier of electricity. It doesn't matter which supplier is selected to provide the generation and transmission of the electricity; each customer's electricity will still be distributed by the local utility company-also known as the Electric Distribution Company (EDC)-serving the customer's area.
Penn State Cooperative Extension would like to educate consumers as to their options for a supplier of electricity and what they need to know about electricity deregulation by offering two programs on Thursday, June 10, 2010 from 2:00 - 3:00 p.m. and again in the evening from 6:00 - 7:00 p.m. The programs will be held in the lower level conference room at the County Office Building, 31 Public Avenue, Montrose.
Presenter for the program will be Dennis Buffington, Professor in the Department of Agricultural and Biological Engineering, Penn State University. Dennis will review the different aspects of electricity generation, transmission and distribution as well as some of the suppliers for residential and commercial/industrial customers.
Become better informed of options that are available and will become more available when the generation of electricity is completely deregulated throughout the state by attending one of these Extension programs.
There is no charge for the program but we would like to request you contact our office if you plan to attend. When you call, please indicate the number in your party and which program you would like to attend. Phone: (570)278-1158.
