The First State's Energy Market
Delaware's fully deregulated energy market lets commercial and industrial businesses choose competitive electricity and natural gas suppliers, creating savings across all three counties.
Fully Deregulated
Delaware deregulated electricity in 2006 and natural gas in 2001, giving businesses statewide access to competitive energy markets.
PJM Market
Delaware participates in the PJM Interconnection market, one of the nation's largest regional transmission organizations, serving 65 million people across 13 states.
Delmarva Power Territory
Delmarva Power is the utility throughout Delaware, providing transmission and distribution for both electricity and natural gas statewide.
Business-Friendly Climate
Delaware's corporate-friendly environment and competitive energy rates attract businesses in financial services, manufacturing, and healthcare.
SOS Rates
Standard Offer Service (SOS) rates are the default utility supply, but competitive procurement typically delivers 15-25% savings for commercial customers.
Renewable Options
Access renewable energy certificates (RECs) and green power products through Delaware's competitive market to support sustainability goals while managing costs.
Statewide Service
We serve commercial and industrial clients throughout all three Delaware counties.
