(Joliet, IL) — Illinois is taking action to lower monthly utility bills for working families while securing Illinois’ long-term energy future. But, critics argue the bill will have the opposite effect on utility costs. Governor Pritzker signed the Clean and Reliable Grid Affordability Act.
The measure aims to prevent rising electricity costs driven by private grid operators, expands cost-saving energy resources, and continues to grow Illinois’ clean energy economy across the state. Officials say the CRGA comes at a time when private grid operators are hiking rates and the Trump Administration rejected low-cost, renewable energy options.
