Allentown businesses are part of the PJM territory. PJM manages wholesale electricity markets and system reliability. What happens in the wholesale market — capacity auctions, fuel costs, weather events — flows through to retail commercial rates. A broker tracks those conditions and advises on timing.

Current all-in commercial rates in Allentown typically range 9–14 cents/kWh supply depending on load size, contract term, and market timing. Larger loads generally get more aggressive pricing because suppliers compete harder for them.
