The benefits of SB 1665/HB 2414
Posted in:
[The following is a paid advertisement.]
If passed, the Natural Gas Modernization, Public Safety and Jobs Bill (SB 1665/HB 2414) will:
• Provide Illinoisans with a more reliable, modern natural gas distribution system and reduce the adverse effects of pipe failures or gas leaks;
• Save customers money through new efficiencies in system operations and maintenance, including a reduction in repair costs and the need for repeat visits;
• Protect over 1,000 Illinois jobs;
• Boost our economy. Peoples Gas’ modernization program is expected to directly invest approximately $2.5 billion into the economy over ten years, which is anticipated to generate an additional $3.7 billion into the Illinois economy; and,
• Deliver environmental benefits to Illinois through a reduced release of greenhouse gas emissions. By upgrading and replacing around 1,000 miles of mains, Peoples Gas will reduce methane emissions by the equivalent of about 96,250 metric tons of CO2e, which is comparable to taking around 19,000 cars off the road, once the project is completed.
Illinois needs to invest in our natural gas infrastructure, but our state needs to enact a sound regulatory framework that gives utilities the certainty to invest.
Members of the Illinois legislature: Vote YES on SB 1665/HB 2414. Click here to learn more: www.peoplesgasdelivery.com/legislation
