When Illinois residents go to the polls Nov. 6, they'll be voting on the next president of the United States and the freedom to collectively negotiate a lower price for energy. More than a dozen Illinois counties and towns have independently agreed to place a referendum to allow a municipal aggregation plan on the upcoming ballot. The more counties which vote to allow municipal aggregation, the lower they'll help drive the cost of energy. Though the economics are simple, the language can be confusing. To help, Good Energy will be on the ground in Illinois explaining to residents what a municipal aggregation plan means for their energy bill. Good Energy's message is simple: Municipal aggregation means lower costs with no extra work for consumer.
