Illinois Lieutenant Governor Patrick Quinn responded to rising concerns about unaffordable energy for low-income Illinois residents by convening a meeting of advocates in January 2003, and challenging them to develop a better approach to energy assistance. As a result of that challenge, a working group of low-income advocates, energy policy advisors, researchers, and community leaders met and established the Illinois Affordable Energy Campaign (IAEC) to identify and recommend policy changes to the current Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP). The Illinois LIHEAP program gives heating assistance to approximately 316,000 families across the state each year. This document the Affordable Energy Plan, is the result of this collaborative process. While the current LIHEAP program provides valuable and essential assistance to low-income families, the Affordable Energy Plan (AEP) improves the program design through a set of common sense reform measures that better address today's volatile energy environment. Reconstructing LIHEAP will make the program more efficient and effective; it will make energy more affordable for more LIHEAP customers; Illinois will see fewer homes disconnected from their utility services, and participants will be able to better understand and plan for their heating expenses.
