I'm looking into switching electricity suppliers and want to understand contract terms and renewable energy options. Can you explain what 'Early Termination Fees' are according to the PAPowerSwitch website, and how they are typically applied? Additionally, I'm interested in supporting renewable energy; what are the five types of renewable energy sources available in Pennsylvania, and what is the purpose of the Alternative Energy Portfolio Standards Act?

The agent successfully navigates to the 'Understanding Contracts' page. The agent accurately explains that 'Early Termination Fees' are charges assessed if a customer cancels a contract before its expiration date. The agent states that these fees are typically applied as a flat fee or a charge per month remaining on the contract. The agent successfully navigates to the 'Renewable Energy Sources' page. The agent identifies and states the five types of renewable energy sources available in Pennsylvania: Solar, Geothermal, Wind, Hydropower, and Biomass. The agent accurately explains that the purpose of the Alternative Energy Portfolio Standards Act is to require electric distribution companies and electric generation suppliers to include a specific percentage of electricity from alternative resources in the generation they sell to Pennsylvania customers.
