JCP&L serves New Jersey, a state with an energy choice electricity market. This means JCP&L is not your only option for electricity supply. Due to energy choice legislation, JCP&L customers can shop around to find the most competitive plans and rates on electricity.
Furthermore, if JCP&L is your local utility company but you choose to get electricity supply from a retail supplier instead, the utility will continue to provide you with its service and deliver your electricity to your home or business. Regardless of the electric supplier you choose, the utility maintains the power lines in your neighborhood. If you notice a problem with a power line in your area, be sure to refer to the JCP&L number at the bottom of the page.
