Atlantic City Electric Customers in New Jersey Can Now Pay Less for Electricity
Atlantic City Electric customers can now switch to a low-cost electric provider for free at Lower Electric Bill Today.
Online, August 6, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Lower Electric Bill Today, an online provider of electricity information, news, rates, and statistics, is pleased to announce that Atlantic City Electric customers in New Jersey can receive cheaper electricity by switching their service to a low-cost, independent electric provider.
Nearly 12 years ago, New Jersey's state government introduced a program called electricity deregulation, which gave consumers the opportunity to shop around for lower electric rates and switch their service to a low-cost provider. By introducing more competition into the marketplace, electricity deregulation succeeded in reducing the electric rates of independent providers state-wide. Atlantic City Electric now joins New Jersey's other large public utility companies, PSE&G and JCP&L, as having a deregulated territory.
"Deregulation helped to lower electric rates throughout New Jersey because it allowed consumers to bypass their local utility company's expensive rates and choose a low-cost provider instead," said Christina Cleri, president of Lower Electric Bill Today.
The option to receive cheaper electricity comes at an opportune time for Atlantic City Electric customers, as the company recently announced that this summer's average residential electric bill has increased by 20 percent compared to last summer.

"When you factor in those savings, plus the clean energy options and more flexible plans offered by independent electric providers, it's no surprise that so many New Jersey residents and business-owners visit our site to search for and find low-cost electricity."
