FAQs
We sure can.
1. Your natural gas service consists of two main functions: 1) purchasing the gas and 2) distributing the gas.
2. Your gas utility will continue to distribute gas to your location, send you your bill, check for gas leaks and respond to emergencies.
3. But for purchasing the gas, YOU HAVE A CHOICE! Your utility can only provide you one option for natural gas - a variable price. A variable price can fluctuate up or down depending upon many factors.
Would you like bill stability? Do you want to know exactly how much you are paying each month for the next 12 months? With a Fixed Bill plan from Illinois Energy Solutions, you can lock in your monthly amount for the period of time that you choose.
Your local utility company will still continue to distribute gas to your location, send you your bill, check for gas leaks and respond to emergencies. This does not change.

You still get your gas from Nicor Gas and the Illinois Energy Solutions Fixed Bill amount is reflected on your same monthly Nicor Gas statement. The total Fixed Bill plan charges over the term of the plan agreement may be higher than the total cost of traditional utility service over that same period and customers may not save money on the plan.
