How long would the City’s contract with a third party supplier be?
The City had the option to explore a 1 year, 2 year or 3 year contract with a third party electric power supplier. The term of the contract was included in bids received through the RFP process. During the first program in 2012, the City Council decided to enter into a 2 year contract with a rate guarantee that if the ComEd rate fell below the third party rate, the third party supplier would have to lower their rate to the new ComEd rate. Beginning with the second program in 2014, matching the ComEd rate was no longer an option provided by suppliers through the bidding process. The City Council recently entered into a 2-year contract that will hold the low bid price throughout the term of the agreement.
