ComEd (NASDAQ: EXC) filed its second multi-year grid plan (MYGP) covering 2028–2031 with the Illinois Commerce Commission on January 17, 2026. The plan targets reliability, affordability, and clean-energy integration by adding capacity (including new substations), accelerating interconnection of renewables, expanding DERMS and fiber communications, and using analytics/AI for resilience. ComEd projects average residential electricity share of household income at 1.47% in 2028 and 1.56% in 2031, cites 1.4 GW of distributed solar (up from 1 GW in 2024), and estimates the MYGP would raise the average monthly residential bill by about $2.50–$3.00 annually starting in 2028. The ICC will review and decide by year-end 2026; a separate rate filing is planned for January 2027.
Exelon (Nasdaq: EXC) announced an additional $10 million contribution to its Customer Relief Fund on January 14, 2026, bringing Exelon’s direct customer assistance to $60 million over the past year. Funds will be shared across Exelon operating companies — Atlantic City Electric, BGE, ComEd, Delmarva Power, PECO and Pepco — and administered by local nonprofits, with funding amounts, eligibility, and delivery tailored by service territory. Exelon said the contribution addresses short-term affordability needs as cold weather raises energy use and emphasized pushing for longer-term market reforms and utility-generated power to tackle supply and demand drivers of rising bills. Additional local grant details will be announced by the operating companies in coming weeks.

ComEd (NASDAQ: EXC) announced new Transmission Security Agreements (TSAs) to ensure large-load applicants pay their share of connection and transmission costs. The first eight TSAs cover a forecasted new load >6.5 GW and include revenue commitments that will prevent existing customers from bearing more than $2 billion in transmission charges over a 10-year period.
The TSAs require a 10-year “take or pay” collateral for projects of 50 MW or above and aim to reduce speculative projects; related retail tariff changes are pending an Illinois Commerce Commission decision expected early this year.

ComEd (NASDAQ: EXC) awarded a $500,000 EV charging rebate to bp pulse to fund site and infrastructure upgrades for a new public charging hub near O’Hare Airport that will add 40 ultrafast ports (mix of 400kW and 150kW DC fast chargers).
ComEd said the project is one of six partnerships with bp pulse, builds on nearly 9,500 chargers energized under its rebate programs since 2024, and is supported by Illinois EPA grants.
ComEd (NASDAQ: EXC) announced the livening of an expanded 765 kV Wilton Center substation in Will County, Illinois, a transmission upgrade built to enable the largest cluster of onshore wind and solar projects in Illinois to interconnect beginning in 2026. The expansion increases the substation yard by 50% to 1.5 million sq ft, adds 765 kV breakers and protection equipment, and includes a new detention pond holding 2.8 million gallons of stormwater.
The upgraded Wilton Center will support five wind farms and two solar farms with combined output of up to 2,450 MW. Construction reused about 80,000 tons of topsoil and 90,000 tons of on-site clay to reduce hauling; Burns & McDonnell served as engineer and Lindblad Construction led build efforts.
NextEra Energy Transmission and Exelon (EXC) were recommended by PJM Interconnection on Dec. 8, 2025, to deliver an approximately 220-mile 765-kV high-voltage transmission line serving Pennsylvania and parts of West Virginia.
The proposed bi-directional line would facilitate about 7 GW of power, reportedly transfer 2–3x more power than 500-kV lines, reduce transmission losses by 50%, and support regional investments including a $92 billion Pennsylvania power program and West Virginia initiatives. The PJM Board will cast a final vote in early 2026.
ComEd (NASDAQ: EXC) will launch a new Low-Income Discount (LID) program on Jan. 1, 2026 to provide income-eligible customers percentage-based discounts on monthly electric bills.
Discounts are divided into five income tiers designed to reduce energy burden to 3–6% of household income. Customers approved for LID receive up to 24 months of discounts and will see a bill line item labeled “Low-Income Discount” as early as January 2026. Pre-approval for first four tiers requires LIHEAP approval dating back to October 2024; customers up to 300% of Federal Poverty Level may self-enroll via ComEd.com/SAM starting Jan. 1, 2026.
ComEd (NASDAQ: EXC) will return over $803 million to customers under Illinois’ Climate and Equitable Jobs Act (CEJA) through the Carbon Mitigation Credit (CMC) program.
Residential and commercial customers will receive the funds as automatic bill credits; the average residential customer is expected to get about $13 per month (depending on usage) across the first five months of the year. The CMC program runs through 2027 and can produce either credits or charges depending on energy market prices.
No action is required by customers to receive the credit. ComEd serves more than 4 million customers in northern Illinois and is a unit of Exelon, which serves over 10.7 million energy customers overall.
