Does Delmarva Power profit on the sale of the natural gas commodity they acquire on behalf of their customers?
No. Delmarva Power purchases gas in the wholesale market to meet expected customer needs. The company does not make a profit on the gas it purchases for its customers. It simply passes the cost of the natural gas on to the customer without adding on any profit. When the cost of buying the gas for our customers goes down, we pass the savings directly on to our customers.
