ComEd Backs a Bill to Impose Demand Charges on Residential Customers
The Illinois General Assembly introduced legislation on Thursday that would allow ComEd to invest more than $400 million in community solar, along with grid-edge assets such as microgrids and public electric-vehicle charging infrastructure.
The bill has bipartisan sponsorship in the state legislature and is expected to leverage the investment ComEd has already made in smart grid technologies, while increasing investment in renewable energy and increasing the resiliency of the grid.
