Illinois Electricity Rate Increases: Protecting Yourself from ComEd & Ameren

Historically, utility rates in the Midwest increase by an average of 3% to 5% annually. However, recent infrastructure upgrades and inflation have triggered double-digit percentage spikes in delivery fees. If your average electric bill is $200 today, an annual increase of just 4% means you will pay over $3,500 more for electricity over the next ten years just to maintain the status quo.

When you install solar panels through SunBeam Innovations, you are essentially pre-purchasing your electricity for the next 25 years at a locked-in rate. By replacing a volatile, perpetually increasing utility bill with a fixed zero-down financing payment, you immunize your household against future ComEd and Ameren rate hikes.
