Developer seeks city approval to replace Crawford power plant in Little Village with massive distribution center
Chicago’s Little Village is home to a retired coal-fired power plant. Future use of the space is being planned by Hilco Redevelopment Partners with the approval of the City Council. Hilco plans to convert it into a distribution center and they believe the jobs created would benefit the city.
Some are wary of this renovation as the plant “was designed by noted architecture firm Graham, Anderson, Probst & White and opened in the 1920s”. Although the building needs to be demolished, they hope to repurpose various pieces. Added advantages are Hilco plans to use a power infrastructure to support electric vehicles and other renewable energy sources such as solar panels.

PriceWatch™ for Winter 2018 – 2019
Realgy’s PriceWatchTM service continuously monitors the natural gas market to bring you the best fixed rates when it can reduce costs over a recommended time period.
Last winter was 15% warmer than a Normal winter. Previous winters have included the words “Polar Vortex”… This year’s forecast was for a warmer winter. However, it has been colder than predicted. Last winter, Realgy’s PriceWatchTM recommendation saved customers 13.7 %.
Since September, natural gas prices have increased nearly 40%; from $3.00 to over $4.00 (wholesale prices).
Realgy Energy Services, your natural gas supplier is NOT recommending that you lock in this winter’s price for natural gas. Our fixed price would be above the utility. The reason is due to this price spike. The forecasted weather was for a warmer winter, but it has been colder; that in conjunction with low storage amounts has resulted in the unexpected increase. Realgy will continue to monitor natural gas prices and will provide a fixed price when we can provide savings.

Energy registry aims to standardize utility data for cities, counties
One approach to aiding local governments with incorporating energy and climate goals is to build a system that will track utility data and their energy progress. The hope is utilities will share data to compare from community to community. This is seen as an important tool to reduce greenhouse gases and plan for renewable energy. Several states have been gathering data over the years and projects are being funded by the US Department of Energy. Categories of importance are energy, water, travel, waste and greenhouse gas emissions.
