PPL, PECO and many other utilities across the nation will increase rates by nearly 30% in 2010 when state imposed rate caps on electric prices expire. Though companies will be able to shop for electricity, which can provide up to a 10% savings; the ending costs will still be much higher than what they are currently paying. Up until this time, state specific imposed rate caps held electric 
prices to certain levels for more than a decade. The rate increases will take companies from 1990s pricing to 2010 pricing all in one step.
