Ever wonder what the difference is between municipal aggregation and your utility?
It's a common question—and the answer is simpler than you might think.
Municipal Aggregation helps communities secure an electricity supply rate on behalf of eligible residents and small businesses through a competitive bidding process.
Your Utility (like ComEd) continues to deliver your electricity, maintain power lines, respond to outages, and send your monthly bill.
What doesn't change?
✔️ Your electricity remains just as reliable.
✔️ You still contact your utility if the power goes out.
✔️ You continue receiving one monthly bill from your utility.
The biggest difference? Municipal aggregation changes who supplies your electricity, while your utility continues to deliver it.
Understanding the difference can help you make informed decisions about your energy choices.
