Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]  
Revenue from Contracts with Customers [Text Block] Revenue from Contracts with Customers (All Registrants)
The Registrants recognize revenue from contracts with customers to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the entities expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Generation’s primary sources of revenue include competitive sales of power, natural gas, and other energy-related products and services. The Utility Registrants’ primary sources of revenue include regulated electric and gas tariff sales, distribution and transmission services.
See Note 4Revenue from Contracts with Customers of the Exelon 2019 Form 10-K for additional information regarding the primary sources of revenue for the Registrants.
Contract Balances (All Registrants)
Contract Assets and Liabilities
Generation records contract assets for the revenue recognized on the construction and installation of energy efficiency assets and new power generating facilities before Generation has an unconditional right to bill for and receive the consideration from the customer. These contract assets are subsequently reclassified to receivables when the right to payment becomes unconditional. Generation records contract assets and contract receivables within Other current assets and Customer accounts receivable, net, respectively, within Exelon’s and Generation’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Generation records contract liabilities when consideration is received or due prior to the satisfaction of the performance obligations. These contract liabilities primarily relate to upfront consideration received or due for equipment service plans, solar panel leases and the Illinois ZEC program that introduces a cap on the total consideration to be received by Generation. Generation records contract liabilities within Other current liabilities and Other noncurrent liabilities within Exelon's and Generation's Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The following table provides a rollforward of the contract assets and liabilities reflected in Exelon's and Generation's Consolidated Balance Sheets for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020

__________
(a)
Revenues recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2019, which were included in contract liabilities at December 31, 2018, were approximately $5 million for both Exelon and Generation.
(b)
Revenues recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2020, which were included in contract liabilities at December 31, 2019, were approximately $9 million and $19 million for Exelon and Generation, respectively.
The Utility Registrants do not have any contract assets. The Utility Registrants also record contract liabilities when consideration is received prior to the satisfaction of the performance obligations. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Utility Registrants' contract liabilities were immaterial.
Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations (All Registrants)
The following table shows the amounts of future revenues expected to be recorded in each year for performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied as of March 31, 2020. This disclosure only includes contracts for which the total consideration is fixed and determinable at contract inception. The average contract term varies by customer type and commodity but ranges from one month to several years.
This disclosure excludes Generation's power and gas sales contracts as they contain variable volumes and/or variable pricing. This disclosure also excludes the Utility Registrants' gas and electric tariff sales contracts and transmission revenue contracts as they generally have an original expected duration of one year or less and, therefore, do not contain any future, unsatisfied performance obligations to be included in this disclosure.
