The state Public Utility Commission really wants electric users to switch from their utility to one of the dozens of alternative suppliers.

PPL will cut its residential rate by 4.1 percent Friday, reflecting the cheaper prices it’s paying to obtain power on the wholesale market.
This latest change, announced Tuesday, is the third consecutive quarterly rate reduction for PPL.
