ComEd’s Vehicle Electrification Journey Drives EV Growth and Equity
ComEd launched its Beneficial Electrification Plan programs in 2024. These programs have incentivized more than 6,000 new public and private EV charging ports as well as the purchase or lease of nearly 1,800 new or pre-owned electric fleet vehicles to date. According to ComEd, 79% of the funds supplied by the utility have been allocated to support low-income and equity-eligible customers.
ComEd’s efforts prioritize access, affordability and trust, along with the facilitation of stakeholder collaborations ranging from the State of Illinois to multiple private and public sector partners. In tandem with the rollout of the Beneficial Electrification Plan, electric vehicle registrations in Illinois grew rapidly in Q1 2025 compared to Q1 2024.
This endeavor earned ComEd Gold recognition in Chartwell’s 2025 Best Practices Awards for Excellence in Electric Vehicle Programs.
