Trappe selects 24‑month fixed electric supply to avoid Delmarva Power rate increase
Summary
The council approved a 24‑month fixed‑rate electric supply contract to avoid reverting to Delmarva Power’s higher rates when the town’s current contract expires in December; CQI Associates presented multiple options before the unanimous vote.
Richard Anderson of CQI Associates presented electric supplier rate options at the Nov. 5 Trappe Town Council meeting, warning that the town’s current contract expires in December and that, without a new contract, rates would default to Delmarva Power’s current charges. After reviewing options, the Council voted unanimously to select a 24‑month fixed‑rate supply option.
Commissioner Walter Chase made the motion to select the 24‑month fixed rate; Commissioner Michael Sullivan seconded and the motion passed unanimously. Anderson’s presentation framed the decision as a choice between locking a predictable rate and defaulting to Delmarva Power’s variable rates when the contract lapses.
The Council did not disclose the specific fixed rate in the public minutes read at the meeting; staff indicated the new contract would take effect when the current agreement expires in December and the Town Administrator will follow up with contract documents.
