Exelon is one of the clearest AGI beneficiaries — a regulated electric utility that sells the one thing AGI cannot exist without: electricity.
Exelon is the largest regulated electric utility holding company in the United States by customer count, serving approximately 10.7 million customers across six regulated utilities: ComEd (Illinois), PECO (Pennsylvania), BGE (Maryland), Pepco (DC/Maryland), Delmarva Power (Delaware/Maryland), and Atlantic City Electric (New Jersey). Following the 2022 spinoff of its power generation business into Constellation Energy, Exelon is a pure-play regulated transmission and distribution utility. The company delivers electricity and natural gas to residential, commercial, industrial, and governmental customers across the Mid-Atlantic and Midwest regions.
Approximately 10.7 million residential, commercial, industrial, and governmental electricity and natural gas customers across Illinois, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, and Washington D.C. Residential customers make up the largest customer count, while commercial and industrial customers contribute significant revenue per customer.
AGI cannot replace physical electricity generation, transmission, and distribution infrastructure. Grid operations require massive physical assets — power lines, substations, transformers, nuclear plants. AGI could optimize grid management and reduce workforce in control rooms, but the core business of delivering electrons is irreplaceable by software. Exelon's customers are residential, commercial, and industrial electricity consumers across multiple states. Electricity demand is universal and inelastic. AGI actually increases electricity demand substantially — data centers powering AGI systems are among the fastest-growing electricity consumers. Customer base is not concentrated in IT or knowledge workers; it spans all sectors of the economy.
