Hedge Your Business Against Illinois Electricity Rate Increases With SunMatic Solar

Illinois business owners now face unprecedented pressure from skyrocketing electricity costs. In mid-2025, PJM’s regional capacity auction sent fees soaring to $329.17/MW-day. The result: average commercial and industrial bills increased by 20–25%. The capacity charges—driven by grid constraints and demand growth—are forecasted to rise further through 2027.
