Illinois Smart Grid Initiative
What is the Illinois Smart Grid Initiative?
The ISGI is a public-private working group formed to engage Illinoisans in examining the nature and potential benefits of a modernized electric grid, and to map a policy path for achieving those benefits for consumers and the economy.
Who can participate?
Any organization in Illinois with a stake in the electric power system and the energy future of the State can join this working group.
Local Governments • Consumer Groups • Business Associations • Environmental Advocates • Others
How will the ISGI operate?
The ISGI will hold a series of roundtable meetings in Chicago during the summer and fall of 2008. Early meetings will feature presentations and discussions about the smart grid concept, and later meetings will focus on public policy formulation. Regular and active participation and a collaborative ethos will be encouraged.
