ComEd Sets Record Reliability to Customers in 2022

 Investments in the power grid continued to pay reliability dividends for ComEd customers as the electric company delivered record reliability in 2022. Since grid improvements began in 2011, overall reliability has improved more than 80 percent. In that time, ComEd has avoided more than 19 million power outages for customers, saving more than $3.3 billion in outage-related costs. In 2022, 85 percent, or nearly 3.5 million ComEd customers, experienced zero or one interruption in service.

ComEd in 2021 delivered some of its highest levels of year over-year reliability as a result of power grid investments such as smart switches that  reroute power around potential problem areas, new storm hardening and vegetation  management solutions, and cable replacement.
