Illinois ends ban on large nuclear plants, boosts battery storage to cut costs and improve grid reliability.
Illinois lawmakers passed a major energy bill on October 29, 2025, lifting the state’s ban on new large-scale nuclear power plants and advancing a plan to build up to 3 gigawatts of battery storage.
The Clean and Reliable Grid Affordability Act aims to expand renewable energy, improve grid reliability, and save residents $13.4 billion over 20 years, though opponents warn it could raise electricity rates and harm businesses.
The bill includes new fees on existing nuclear plants and establishes an appeal process for rate decisions.
It now moves to the Senate for further review.
