New power prices for June 1-Sept. 30

ComEd and Ameren both are charging new prices for electricity this summer.

Good News: Both of these rates are lower than last summer’s prices!

ComEd: 6.725 cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh)

Ameren: 4.561 cents per kWh

Bad News: Knowing they’ll have a hard time competing with these prices, dishonest and aggressive sales reps for alternative suppliers could be even more desperate to lure people into bad deals this summer.
