How Atlantic City Electric (ACE) and Retail Suppliers Work Together
ACE serves South Jersey — significant hospitality, gaming, and retail commercial load.
ACE handles distribution. TPS competition applies. The supply portion of your bill — typically the largest single line item for commercial accounts — is where retail competition applies. That's the piece a broker targets.
ACE delivery rates are NJ BPU-regulated.
What "Switching Suppliers" Means for Atlantic City Electric (ACE) Customers
Standard NJ TPS switching process applies.
TPS competition is active in ACE territory.
The process: you authorize a supplier to serve your account, they notify Atlantic City Electric (ACE), and the change takes effect at your next billing cycle. No technician visit. No service interruption. Same reliability, different supply rate.
