Pennsylvania Monthly Migration Returns to More Normal Levels, State Still Losing Shoppers

After a December that saw more than 40,000 customers leave competitive supply (click here for story), January saw the Pennsylvania retail electric market return to more normal migration patterns, but the state still saw a net decline in residential electric shopping.

Specifically, from late December to late January, Pennsylvania saw a net decline in residential electric shopping of about 6,700 accounts.

Every large EDC except PECO saw a decline in residential shopping.
