If you live in the DMV, you no doubt have been screwed over more than once by PEPCO. I'm currently disputing a PEPCO bill and will have a formal hearing next month with the DC Public Service Commission.
After I resolve that, I plan to switch to Clean Currents.
Chesapeake Green (C-Green) is a new carbon neutral electricity option for people in the Chesapeake region. C-Green combines standard electricity from the Mid Atlantic grid (the PJM grid) with Renewable Energy Credits (“RECs” or “green tags”) from wind farms situated across the United States, bundled together and supplied by Washington Gas Energy Services, a licensed retail energy supplier in MD and DC. This bundled product helps fight global warming by offsetting the carbon emissions from your electricity use with clean, renewable wind power.
Chesapeake Green current rates are lower than Pepco AND BGE's Summer rates!
All you need is your Pepco or BGE account number! (Note: If you don't know your account number, you can find out by calling Pepco at 202-833-7500 or BGE at 1-800-685-0123.)
Utility Service Area
50% 1-Year 50% 2-Year 100% 1-Year 100% 2-Year
For Maryland BGE Customers 11.1¢ per kWh 11.2¢ per kWh 11.5¢ per kWh 11.8¢ per kWh
For Maryland Pepco Customers 11.2¢ per kWh 11.3¢ per kWh 11.7¢ per kWh 11.8¢ per kWh
For District of Columbia Pepco Customers 11.1¢ per kWh 11.1¢ per kWh 11.6¢ per kWh 11.6¢ per kWh
Clean Currents rates cover all Generation and Transmission charges. The rate is the same at all times for the length of your contract. Distribution is still a regulated market (you do not have a choice). Your Distribution charges will stay with the utility in your area (Pepco or BGE). Your utility is still responsible for the reliability of your power, power line maintenance, and billing.
100% wind power will be 0.5¢ less, 50% wind power will be 0.25¢ less per kWh during the duration of the program's funding.
