H,CH W LIVING,
ulM SINCE 1939
I EE how they compare! One is up, but the other is down.
Since 1939, the cost of living has gone UP 25.4while
the average price per kilowatt-hour of PP&L electricity is
DOWN 21. Our customers have had three rate reductions
and two "rate dividends" in those five years. And the average
price we receive for residential electric service is down from
2.36 cents per kilowatt-hour then to only 1.86 cents now.
In fact, the average home served by PP&L is using nearly;
twice as much electricity today as was used fifteen years ago
and at no trior cost!
