Starting in 2026, thousands of Chicago-area families struggling with high electric bills could see real relief. ComEd’s new Low-Income Discount program will cap energy costs at 3% of household income (or 6% for homes with electric heat) for those earning up to 300% of the federal poverty level. The catch? The discount is funded by a fee on all customers, sparking debate about who should pay—ratepayers or ComEd’s shareholders. If you or someone you know might qualify, keep an eye out for enrollment info. How do you feel about everyone chipping in to help neighbors keep the lights on? #Business #Chicago #ComEd
