    City Council Evaluates Future Electricity Options

    Naperville City Council met on September 28, 2026, to discuss the city's electric strategy and directed staff to investigate joining a joint action agency or buying power on the wholesale market.

    Naperville City Council members met on September 28, 2026, for a workshop dedicated to reviewing the city's future electricity strategy. The council explored options for the city's power supply, including the possibility of joining a new joint action agency or purchasing energy directly on the wholesale market.

    City staff were directed to conduct further research into both paths to determine which would offer the most reliable and cost-effective outcomes for residents. This workshop is part of a broader ongoing effort by the city to manage its energy infrastructure and budget effectively. Further discussions and potential decisions on these electricity options are expected in the coming months as the city prepares for future energy needs.
