Exelon Secures $13 Million in Savings for Natural Gas Customers<\/b><\/p>\n

Advocacy for customers reflects the Exelon Promise, a commitment to keep bills as low as possible<\/i>amid rising energy costs<\/i><\/p>\n

CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nExelon today announced that approximately $13 million will be returned to natural gas customers in the form of refunds and lower long-term costs, following the successful resolution of a multi-year federal pipeline rate case that would have increased natural gas delivery costs for customers. Exelon\u2019s advocacy also helped avoid more than $12 million annually in additional costs that would have otherwise been passed on to customers. Customers of three Exelon operating companies will benefit from the $13 million in immediate savings, including $8.9 million for PECO, $3.6 million for Delmarva Power, and $500,000 for BGE.<\/p>\n

Advocating for Customers as Costs Rise<\/b><\/p>\n

\nThe win for customers comes at a time when energy supply costs are rising and reflects Exelon\u2019s continued efforts to advocate on behalf of customers through the Exelon Promise, keeping bills as low as possible.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWe launched The Exelon Promise because we share our customers\u2019 frustration with rising energy costs. While we don\u2019t control the supply side driving those increases, we are focused on every opportunity to reduce the costs we can <\/i>control,\u201d said Calvin Butler, President and CEO of Exelon.<\/b> \u201cBy challenging this rate increase, we secured meaningful savings on the delivery side \u2013 returning money to customers, avoiding new charges, and helping keep bills as manageable as possible for families and small businesses.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nThe savings stem from Exelon\u2019s participation in a proceeding before the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) involving a proposed rate increase from Transcontinental Gas Pipeline Company (Transco), a major natural gas supplier in the Mid-Atlantic. Exelon companies intervened and challenged the proposal, ultimately helping to secure a settlement that reduced costs, returned over-collection, and prevented new surcharges.<\/p>\n

Meaningful Benefits for Customers<\/b><\/p>\n

\nThe settlement delivers multiple, lasting benefits for Exelon customers:<\/p>\n
