What is the Utilitys Price to Compare?
Each utility computes a “Price to Compare” to serve as a guideline to make comparisons between the utility’s rate and prices for electricity offered by suppliers. The “Price to Compare” (PTC) is just an AVERAGE rate customers will pay per kWh of electricity generation and transmission from the utility. The ACTUAL amount an individual customer will pay per kWh will vary depending upon their rate class and seasonal usage pattern.
