What the business community really thinks about Senate Bill 1652

Posted in:

[The following is a paid advertisement.]

“The Governor’s veto was a great disappointment to the business community and consumers alike. Opportunities for this kind of investment don’t come around every day. Our elected officials should seize it.”

-Jerry Roper, President and CEO, Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce

Businesses looking to relocate or expand can’t afford to rely on an electrical system designed more than 100 years ago. They need a stronger, smarter grid.

“We depend on a steady stream of electricity around the clock to meet the demands of our customers. Even the most minor outage can cost thousands of dollars. We need a modern grid that offers increased reliability to meet the demands of the 21st century economy.”

-George Gatto, president, Gatto Industrial Platers

A modern, reliable grid is essential for Illinois’ effort to rebound from the recession.

“A modern smart grid is necessary to avoid outages that cost local businesses money and hurt their ability to compete. A modern grid will position Illinois to attract new business and new jobs.”

-John Estey, President and CEO, S&C Electric Company, Chicago
