The Stats Are In: Atlantic City Electric Delivered Record Reliability in 2017

When customers flip the switch, they expect their lights to come on. Employees across the Exelon family of companies work every day to enhance the local power grid and meet the expectations of more than 10 million customers nationwide.

Atlantic City Electric invested more than $138 million last year to modernize aging equipment, install new technology, and trim trees – all to provide safe and reliable service to our customers and the communities we serve. And we recently announced that we are now providing faster and better service than ever before. statistic card

In 2017, the average number of outages decreased by 17 percent compared to the previous low set in 2015. When customers did experience an outage, we restored power an average of seven minutes faster than the previous record set in 2015.

Overall, the numbers of outages in southern New Jersey decreased by more than 40 percent over the past five years.

We will continue working to improve reliability for customers. From inspecting existing infrastructure and building new, stronger equipment, to using innovative technologies to improve system reliability – it’s all part of our commitment to providing safe and reliable service that our customers can count on.
