  1. Illinois Energy Efficiency Portfolio Energy Efficiency Incentives Illinois IASBO May 19, 2010 Pat Quinn, Governor Warren Ribley, Director

  2. Energy Efficiency Portfolio EEPS was created through legislation and provides for incentives in the form of rebates for ComEd and/or Ameren Illinois utility customers. EEPS is designed to encourage those customers to purchase and install high efficiency electric equipment and systems to reduce electricity use and demand.

  3. Projected Energy Efficiency Funding Applies only to Commonwealth Edison (ComEd) & Ameren Illinois electric service customers
