Tuesday, Oct 18, 2011 - Posted by Advertising Department [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 “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 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.” For more information on the benefits of grid modernization through SB 1652, visit www.SmartEnergyIL.com .
