Illinois Community Choice Aggregation Law

Illinois Community Choice Aggregation (CCA) Law allows local municipalities to band together and independently purchase electricity on behalf of residents and businesses. This enables communities to choose cleaner, potentially more affordable energy sources, while remaining the utility's customer. The law provides a framework for these programs, promoting energy cost savings, increased renewable energy use, and local control over energy options. Participation is voluntary; customers can opt out if they prefer the utility's standard service. Overall, Illinois CCA Law empowers communities to tailor their energy supply and support sustainable energy initiatives.
