BALTIMORE (Dec. 5, 2016) —Five Exelon utilities — Atlantic City Electric ("ACE"), Baltimore Gas and Electric Company ("BGE"), Commonwealth Edison ("ComEd"), Delmarva Power ("DPL"), and Potomac Electric Power Company ("Pepco") — intend to issue a joint-utility Request for Proposals ("RFP") from Winter Resources to aggregate with the Exelon utilities’ Summer Resources for the purpose of offering Capacity Performance resources into the PJM Interconnection, L.L.C.
