Find Your Maryland Electric company
BGE is Maryland's biggest utility answer. Baltimore and its suburbs run on it for both electricity and gas at most addresses we've checked. The DC suburbs are Pepco territory, southern Maryland belongs to the SMECO co-op, and Washington Gas covers much of the gas map around the capital. Water is public and regional: Baltimore's DPW in the city, the WSSC across Montgomery and Prince George's counties.

BGE's core, Pepco's suburbs, SMECO's south
BGE (Baltimore Gas and Electric) serves the Baltimore metro for electricity and much of its gas. Pepco covers the Washington suburbs, and the SMECO cooperative serves southern Maryland. Maryland has retail supply choice, but your delivery utility is fixed by address.
Gas around the capital is largely Washington Gas; the Eastern Shore sees Chesapeake Utilities. Water is where Maryland differs from most states: the WSSC, one of the country's largest water utilities, serves Montgomery and Prince George's counties, while Baltimore City's Department of Public Works serves the city and surrounding county systems.
