Attention

Due to the rising cost of natural gas, Power Smart Pricing customers will be impacted with higher electricity costs that we expect to last through March of 2022. When demand for electricity outpaces the supply, natural gas generators are used to keep up. And natural gas prices are soaring, reaching their highest level since 2008.   

 


  


Smart shifts can lead to big impacts.

Power Smart Pricing is a supply rate program for residential electric customers where the price you pay for electricity varies hour by hour based on actual market prices. Your bill is calculated using the hourly market prices and your corresponding hourly usage. With Power Smart Pricing, you can manage your electricity costs by using energy wisely during hours when prices are higher.

Reduce electricity usage.

Participating in Power Smart Pricing helps reduce electricity use during peak demand times.

Help the environment.

Reducing electricity use also reduces the need to build or operate additional power plants, lowering greenhouse gas emissions.

Improve service reliability.

Switching when you use electricity can help give the energy grid a break and make service more reliable for everyone in your community.

Lower your energy costs.

Although current natural gas costs are causing unexpected fluctuations, prices generally follow predictable patterns and program participants typically see savings in the long run.

Ameren Illinois is neutral to your electric supply choice and therefore does not recommend one supply option over another. We fully support and encourage you to explore all of your electric supply options. Regardless of your energy supply choice, our commitment to delivering safe, reliable energy remains unchanged.
