PUC warns about look-alike energy sites

The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission is cautioning energy consumers about an increase in look-alike websites mimicking the state’s official energy shopping platforms.

Unofficial copycat or look-alike sites often top search engine results or appear prominently in social media ads, misleading consumers who are looking for fair and unbiased information about energy shopping, according to state Rep. Chad Reichard (R-Waynesboro).

The PUC’s energy shopping websites – clearly marked as “The Official Electric Shopping Websites of the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission” – are designed to provide consumers with impartial and comprehensive information. 

For safe and effective energy shopping and to ensure you are accessing the correct resources, please visit PAPowerSwitch.com and PAGasSwitch.com. Stay safe online and make informed decisions with trusted resources from your Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission.
