Exelon Corporation's ComEd has completed an expansion of its 765 kV Wilton Center substation in southern Will County, Illinois, enabling the interconnection of the largest cluster of utility-scale wind and solar projects in the state. The upgraded substation will support the delivery of up to 2,450 megawatts of renewable energy to the ComEd grid and the PJM energy market, serving growing electricity demand and helping to moderate energy costs. The expansion, with final upgrades expected in 2026, will allow output from five wind farms and two solar farms to flow through ComEd's highest voltage transmission lines, supporting cleaner energy across northern Illinois and beyond.
