Peoples Gas seeks a $10–11 monthly rate hike by 2026–2027 to replace aging pipes, pending Illinois Commerce Commission approval.
Peoples Gas is seeking a rate increase that could add $10 to $11 monthly to the average Chicago household bill starting in 2026 or 2027, citing the need to replace over 1,000 miles of aging iron pipes and improve system safety and reliability.
The proposal, under review by the Illinois Commerce Commission, comes amid rising energy costs linked to inflation and increased demand from AI data centers.
Critics, including the Citizens Utility Board, argue the hike is excessive given a recent major rate increase in 2023 and growing financial strain on families.
The final decision is expected after an 11-month review process.
