*BES: Includes a weighted-average summer & non-summer Purchased Electricity Charge (PEC), PJM Services Charge, Distribution Facilities Charge, Illinois Electricity Distribution Tax, as well as Riders ECR, EEPP, REA, ZEA, CTS, ETAC and CFRA. This does not include fixed charges like Customer Charge nor Meter Charge, nor does it include the Purchased Electricity Adjustment factor.

**BES-H (24-hour average): Derived from load-weighted average real time prices, PJM Services Charge, Miscellaneous Procurement Components Charge, Average Capacity Cost per kWh, Distribution Facilities Charge, Illinois Electricity Distribution Tax, as well as Riders ECR, EEPP, REA, ZEA, CTS, ETAC and CFRA. This also does not include Customer Charge nor Meter Charge, nor Hourly Purchased Electricity Adjustment factor.

*** BES-H (overnight average): Same as above but includes an 8-hour load-weighted average real time energy price between the hours of 10PM – 6AM and NO capacity cost.

This kWh price assumes a “best case” scenario where all EV charging takes place during off-peak hours so the price does not incorporate any of the monthly capacity charge that you’ll be billed for throughout the year (because capacity charges are reflective of the amount of electricity you draw during afternoon summer peak periods – not nighttime usage). Please note that capacity charges can have a significant impact on your overall energy bill and savings, but that furthermore, Hourly Pricing provides you with the tools and information necessary to reduce your capacity charge and save on total energy costs each month versus ComEd’s default fixed-price rate (Rate BES). Visit ComEd.com/HourlyPricing to learn about capacity charges or call 888-202-7787 and speak to a rate specialist.
