Three different times the Illinois legislature has considered legislation to approve Tenaska Energy’s Taylorville Energy Center (TEC), which would have Illinois consumers pay seven times today’s market rate for electricity and cost $286 million per year. Three different members have sponsored versions of this bill. And three different times, including a vote last week, the Senate has rejected Tenaska’s proposal.
But legislation to support the TEC is still being pursued by Tenaska. Here’s why the Illinois legislature should again say, “You’re Outta Here!” to the TEC:
• State and Local Budget Buster:
• Unneeded, Costly Power: The TEC would generate 544 megawatts of base load power – that’s only two-tenths of one percent of overall capacity at a cost of $8.6 billion. The market doesn’t support this project because power demands are already being met.
Please take a moment to let your legislator know that you oppose the Taylorville Energy Center. Visit www.STOPCoalition.com to learn more.
