Information on Electric Aggregation vs. Individual Contracts

Residents have reported that electricity marketers have begun door-to-door and telephone campaigns in Millstadt. Our residents should be aware that the electric aggregation program sponsored by Millstadt has a rate of [X.XX] ¢ per kilowatt-hour. This rate is lower than residents will pay under the terms of individual contracts currently being offered by door-to-door solicitors or telemarketers. In the Millstadt aggregation program, residents are not required to sign a contract at all, and will not be called nor visited by a salesperson. Residents in our community are often confused by the actions of marketers, who typically present savings compared to the Ameren Illinois rates. Our community’s electric contract price is already lower than Ameren’s rates. Further, our program’s rates do not have variable, hidden or “pass through” charges. Residents should be certain to review all contract terms, ask about additional charges, and not feel pressured to take action right away. If you are in a new residential electric account, or uncertain if you are enrolled in the community aggregation program, please contact our supplier, Homefield Energy:

We are extremely indebted to our military service men and women. Many of these loyal individuals are members of our very own community. As a thank you for all that they have done for us and our country, we would like to recognize these military personnel at a Village Board Meeting.

Do you have a relative, friend, or know of anyone who lives within the Village of Millstadt or Millstadt Township that is currently in the military or has recently separated from service within the last year? If someone you know meets this criteria, please call the Village Office at 476-1514.

We look forward to hearing from you.
