Is it integresys? If so I opted out of that and saved quite a bit of money. (It's the fee that gets you) Going direct with ComEd has it's advantages. Also Chicago has a lot cheaper power than other areas.
FirstEnergy. There was no additional fee in Schaumburg to use them, and I pay 6.65 cents/KwH for 100% wind power (until 2017, at which point I expect the price to plummet).
Northern Illinois has extremely cheap power due to Exelon's nuclear generation capacity (Ameren in downstate us primarily coal-fired). I expect the price in IL from ComEd direct to start going up, as they're going to use their smart meter rollout to start pushing time of day metering (as they should) vs flat rate per kwh pricing.
