Energy efficiency is hitting it out of the park at Rate Field! Through the ComEd Energy Efficiency Program, the home of the Chicago White Sox optimized its existing equipment and operations, delivering 1.6 million kWh in annual energy savings and more than $160,000 in estimated annual cost savings, with a quick payback. The annual environmental impact is equivalent to avoiding 552 metric tons of CO₂ emissions, powering 191 homes or removing 123 cars from the road. Learn more: spr.ly/6017BHo4p7

⚡ The future of energy starts with exposure. During National Careers in Energy Week, our Workforce Development team and #ComEdVolunteers connected with nearly 330 students from Chicago Public Schools’ Chicago Builds program and St. Francis de Sales Catholic High School through hands-on activities, mentoring and conversations about careers in energy. Students explored career paths, connected with our employees and learned how their interests and skills could translate into opportunities in the energy industry.

Congratulations to 53 ComEd overhead single-phase apprentices who completed Single Phase Training and are moving on to their on-the-job training assignments. This class demonstrated exceptional perseverance and commitment throughout their training journey.
