Middletown commercial electricity at a glance

Middletown (New Castle County) is served by Town of Middletown Electric Department, a municipal utility. Middletown runs its own municipal system, the Town of Middletown Electric Department, so a Middletown business buys power from the town at its published rate and cannot contract a retail supplier. The EIA publishes a statewide figure, not a city one: the average Delaware commercial account paid 14.40¢ per kWh all-in, supply and delivery together, versus 14.19¢ nationally (EIA, 06/2026), and used about 5,796 kWh a month (EIA, through 2026). That average mixes corner stores with hospitals, so it is market context rather than a quote for any one business, and supplier contract quotes cover the supply portion only, so the two figures are not directly comparable. Voltcheckr LLC is registered as an electricity broker in Texas (PUCT Broker Registration BR260102) and is not currently registered in Delaware.
