No why? If that is what it was before it was Virginia Power then that was before my time. Although I have heard of VEPCO, I don't know what it stands for. Just a stab, is it Virginia Electric Power Co-operative?

Its PPL Electric utilities(since they went nation wide) now they dropped the &, I know I just got the bill

west of Philly you hit MET-ED (metropolitan edison) territory also.

To all Who doesn't know MET-ED owns Three Mile Island

We also have a bunch of companies in about a 40mi radius that sell power to PPL.

Gilberton Power Co.

Central Vermont Public Service
Green Mountain Power Corporation

Vermont Electric Coop
Washington Electric Coop

Plus a whole bunch of town owned systems.

And all of these electric utilities are tied together by a company called Velco.

It's funny that a tiny state (population wise) like Vermont has such a ridiculous number of different utilities serving it.

Nope.

Used to be served by both Delmarva Power, and A&N Coop. When the PSC refused to grant huge rate hikes to DP&L, they sold the whole kit and kaboodle to A&N.

Now, A&N serves the entire Virginia portion of Delmarva.
