In Illinois, a 2021 law meant to buoy nuclear plants is now giving ComEd money back (thanks to upped federal subsidies + higher market prices). Since 2022, the program has produced more than $1.8B in net benefits for ratepayers.
And in Maryland, lawmakers passed a package expected to cut residential electric and gas bills by over $150/yr. That’s thanks to a mix of direct relief, tighter utility cost controls, and a wider large load definition.
