About us
Advancing smart energy to provide safe, reliable, affordable and clean energy and energy services for our customers and the communities we serve. With a history of more than 130 years of service to the Greater Philadelphia region, PECO has a long-standing commitment to a culture of excellence. Formerly, Philadelphia Electric Company, PECO was incorporated in 1902 but finds it origins in The Brush Electric Light Company of Philadelphia, which was formed in 1881. One of the oldest and largest utility companies in the United States, PECO has its origins in the work of Thomas Edison. As invention brought new conveniences, population grew and industry developed, PECO grew to meet the increasing demand of its customers. The history and evolution of electricity and natural gas development, distribution and consumption suggests that demand for both will continue to increase. PECO is the steward of efforts to help customers make better choices about energy usage and is focused on setting the example as an environmental leader. Our company's legacy is one of innovation and commitment to learning. It is also about a commitment to people, our customers.

With support from the Exelon Foundation and the Cal Ripken, Sr. Foundation we opened a new STEM center at Tinicum School in Essington, Pennsylvania. At PECO, STEM education is something that we are truly invested in. It teaches critical thinking skills and instills a passion for innovation. We are excited about the new learning opportunities the STEM center is going to provide our young future leaders.
What an inspiring day at Tinicum School in Essington, Pennsylvania. Today, we helped open doors to new possibilities for our students and our community. Joined by the Cal Ripken, Sr. Foundation, PECO, Cal Ripken, Jr., and so many dedicated individuals, we celebrated the launch of the Ripken Foundation’s 625th STEM center —and the 27th center we’ve opened this year — part of a $3 million Exelon Foundation initiative to bring 81 STEM centers to schools across our service areas over the next three years. When we show up at Tinicum School or Lansdowne Middle School in Baltimore or Tayac Elementary School outside of Washington, D.C., we’re sending a clear message to these young people: we believe in you, and we’re investing in your future. This center is a symbol of what can happen when a community comes together to invest in its young people. It’s proof that when we prioritize opportunity and collaboration, the impact reaches far beyond the classroom. To everyone who brought this vision to life—thank you for showing what’s possible when we work as one. This center is just the beginning, and I can’t wait to see the incredible things these students will accomplish.
