Yep, it has a taint. Comm Ed used to be completely integrated. Then they got smart and broke it all up. I can't keep up with who owns and/or runs what anymore. And it really doesn't matter, I just know this auction of power bs will go nationwide, and it will cost all of US more, just because. A little history, not complete by any means> Commonwealth Edison became UniCom in 1994. PECO bought Chicago-based Unicom and became Exelon in 2000. The new company distributes electricity to 5 million customers: 3.5 million in Northern Illinois, through ComEd, and 1.5 million in the five-county Philadelphia region, through PECO Energy. In addition, Exelon distributes natural gas to 425,000 customers in Pennsylvania. Both PECO and Unicom were leading nuclear plant operators, and more than 70% of Exelon's 19,000-MW generating capacity comes from nuclear plants. Other generation interests include AmerGen Energy, a joint venture with British Energy, and Sithe Energies (49.9%); the firm also markets wholesale and retail power.
