Illinois town electric programs
37 Illinois towns buy power from Constellation NewEnergy
Judy takes no money from electric or gas companies. The facts on this page were checked November 9, 2026 from plugin.illinois.gov.
Each of these towns picked Constellation NewEnergy to sell power to its homes. Each town signed its own contract, so each one has its own price and end date. Homes pay the town’s price unless they said no.
In 33 towns the price is higher than the utility’s standard price today. In 4 towns it is lower. A town’s price is for the electricity only. Delivery costs the same either way.
Every town in this program
Prices are for the electricity itself, in cents for each kWh. Delivery charges from your utility are the same either way. Each town’s page says how to leave its program.
