For nearly 200 years, BGE has been the innovator in meeting the energy needs of Central Maryland residents and businesses with a growing array of programs, services and resources that are defining the next generation of energy management.  This innovation continues today as we serve more than 1.2 million electric customers and more than 650,000 gas customers in an economically diverse, 2,300-square-mile area encompassing Baltimore City and all or part of 9 Central Maryland counties.

 

BGE is a subsidiary of Constellation Energy, a Baltimore-based Fortune 500 energy company that is a major generator of electricity throughout the U.S. and Canada and a leading supplier of energy products and services to wholesale and retail electric and natural gas customers.  In this region, BGE is committed to delivering energy safely and reliably across almost 24,000 miles of electricity transmission and distribution lines, and more than 7,000 miles of gas main.

 

So much has changed in how energy is supplied and managed since BGE lit the first gas lamp in 1816.  Today, we are proud to lead the way to a new era of smart grid technology and energy management tools that is transforming the way our customers purchase and manage their energy.  At the same time,  we know that every day, in countless ways, we interact with literally every aspect of our environment. As a result, preserving our natural resources has long been the cornerstone of all company operations.
