On March 20, 2012, voters in the Village of Lemont approved an Electric Aggregation, opt-out program. Electric Aggregation allows the Village to bundle, or aggregate, residents and small commercial retail customers together to seek bids for a cheaper source of electrical power.

Current Program Details - October 2021 - October 2023

For residents that are included in the Village of Lemont electric aggregation program with contracted energy supplier, AEP Energy, the term of the agreement is for a 24-month period with a fixed rate of 7.081 cents/kWh beginning October 2021 through October 2023 meter read cycles.

This program is structured so that all eligible residents and small business customers in the community are automatically enrolled. Residents do not need to do anything to join the program. However, anyone who does not want to participate in the program can easily opt out by returning the opt-out form that is included at the bottom of the letter by the due date of September 3, 2021. You can also call AEP Energy’s Customer Care Team at 1-877-726-0214.

No Changes in Your Billing

You will continue to receive one monthly bill from ComEd. You will still be eligible for the same programs you are eligible for now through the utility such as budget programs, payment agreements and energy efficiency programs. The only change will be in the Electric Supply price on your ComEd bill. Visit ComEd's website for more information on billing. Service issues, power outages or questions regarding monthly bills should be directed to ComEd.

Enrollment Process

Once your account is enrolled, you will receive a confirmation letter from ComEd confirming your switch to AEP.  Approximately 30 to 45 days after enrollment you will receive your first bill with your new AEP price.

Please be advised you also have the option to purchase electricity supply from a Retail Electric Supplier (RES) or from ComEd pursuant to Section 16-103 of the Public Utilities Act. Information about your options can be found at Illinois Commerce Commission website and ComEd's website. You may request from the Illinois Power Agency, without charge, a list of all supply options available to you in a format that allows comparison of prices and products.
