ComEd supports customers with bill assistance amid rising summer energy costs

Rising energy costs are a concern for many as summer approaches, especially in the wake of a recent energy capacity auction by PJM. This organization oversees the energy grid and electricity market across 13 states and Washington D.C., including northern Illinois. The auction has resulted in increased energy supply costs that affect customers who receive their energy from ComEd. It is important to note that these costs are passed through without any markup or profit to ComEd.

ComEd offers a range of bill-assistance and energy-management programs designed to support customers facing economic challenges. These programs aim to help individuals, families, and community organizations manage their energy expenses more effectively.

For those seeking guidance on which programs might be suitable, ComEd provides resources at ComEd.com/BillSupport. Whether you need financial assistance or advice on reducing energy usage, ComEd's team is available to assist throughout the process.

The company also offers printable resource flyers covering various topics such as understanding electric bills, saving money and energy, supporting vulnerable customers, and helping small businesses manage future energy bills through its efficiency program.
