Atlantic City Electric Co Electricity Rate per kWh (2024 EIA Data)

Atlantic City Electric Co is an investor-owned electric utility that reports to the U.S. Energy Information Administration under utility number 963. In 2024 it served 472,020 bundled residential customers in New Jersey (plus 34,468 delivery-only residential accounts that buy their energy from a competitive supplier), and its average realised residential price was 23.41 cents per kWh: $840 million of residential revenue divided by 3.59 million MWh of residential sales.

Across the other sectors, Atlantic City Electric Co's 2024 average prices were 19.58 cents for commercial customers (51,306 accounts) and 13.77 cents for industrial customers (312 accounts). Industrial customers paid 9.64 cents less per kWh than households, a 41% discount that is typical of high-volume, high-voltage service. New Jersey allows retail choice, so the customer base splits two ways: 472,020 residential customers took bundled service (energy plus delivery) at 23.41 cents per kWh, while 34,468 bought their energy from a competitive supplier and paid Atlantic City Electric Co only for delivery, which averaged 10.86 cents per kWh for the wires portion.

Within New Jersey, Atlantic City Electric Co ranked number 3 of 5 utilities with bundled or delivery service by residential accounts served (506,488, bundled plus delivery-only) and accounted for 12.95% of the state's residential electricity sales in 2024, measured in MWh sold or delivered rather than in customers. The state-wide average realised residential price in 2024, computed from the same EIA file, was 19.34 cents per kWh, so Atlantic City Electric Co's customers paid 4.07 cents above the New Jersey average (+21.0%). For context, EIA's latest monthly figure for New Jersey is 24.95 cents per kWh (June 2026, Electric Power Monthly); that is a different, more recent measure across all utilities and is not directly comparable with a 2024 annual average.

EIA's service-territory file places Atlantic City Electric Co in 8 New Jersey counties: Atlantic, Burlington, Camden, Cape May, Cumberland, Gloucester, Ocean, and Salem. On the grid side it operates in the RFC NERC region and the PJM Interconnection market, and reported transmission, buying transmission, distribution, and wholesale marketing as its activities. Balancing authority code: PJM.

Atlantic City Electric Co is not among the utilities included in EIA's preliminary 2025 early release, so the 2024 final data is the most recent figure available for it.
