Some info on aggregation programs as we switch

Aurora Electric Aggregation Program:
Electric is an “Opt-Out” program where residents are automatically enrolled unless they have requested to be excluded or are on a separate supply agreement.
Program participants automatically transfer from one term to the next unless they take themselves out of the program.
The electric program is currently supplied by Dynegy at the rate of $0.0858/kWh until April 2026 and has no early termination fee.
Anyone who wants to check their status in the electric program should call Dynegy at 888-682-2170 - they can answer questions and add/remove accounts from the electric program.

Aurora Natural Gas Aggregation Program:
Natural Gas is an “Opt-In” program where only the residents who have proactively contacted the supplier and requested to join are included.
If the natural gas supplier changes with the start of a new term, as it has done this year, participants do not automatically continue in the new program term and must contact the supplier if they wish to enroll.
The natural gas program is currently supplied by IGS Energy at the rate of $4.99/Mcf until October 2026 and has no early termination fee.
Anyone who wants to check their status in the natural gas program should call IGS Energy at 877-353-0162 - they can answer questions and add/remove accounts from the natural gas program.

You always have the option to choose others on Apples to Apples -puco.

Thanks. John
