Pennsylvania is seeing extraordinary growth in data centers and other businesses that use large amounts of electricity. That growth can bring jobs and investment to our communities. But it also raises a fair question for families and businesses: Will my electric bill go up to pay for it? At PPL Electric Utilities, our answer is straightforward: we are doing everything we can to make sure that existing customers are protected from costs created by new large energy users. That principle is at the heart of our Customer Protection Framework, which is designed to make sure large energy users pay their appropriate share of the costs needed to connect them to the electric grid. And importantly, there are protections already in place today. As interest from data centers grew, PPL Electric was the first electric utility in the state to proactively establish a separate rate class called LP-6 for qualifying large-load customers. It was approved by the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission in June 2026 and is specifically designed to protect other customers from financial risks associated with serving projects that require significant electricity and infrastructure investments. Under this rate class, large-load customers must make substantial financial and usage commitments before connecting
