The Herald & Review released an editorial today advocating a "yes" vote on the energy aggregation referendum come Nov. 6. If you vote for energy aggregation and it passes, and you decide later that you don't want to participate, you're not obligated to. You can simply "opt-out." As the editorial explains, having bulk purchasing power is the essence of energy aggregation.

Quoting the article: "We agree with Knauer’s assessment and recommend a "yes" vote on aggregation, no matter where you live and vote."

If Illinois residents come together as a single entity, they can demand energy companies offer lower rates on the supply cost of energy.
