Peoria

Ameren Illinois is hard at work improving the reliability and performance of its electrical and natural gas delivery system throughout the tri-county area. We’re investing in infrastructure enhancements as part of our commitment to meeting your energy needs today and preparing for the future.

Enhanced Energy Grid

  • Enhanced the grid in Peoria and Stark County by upgrading power poles to composite poles along a 30-mile route that stabilize the lines and prevent poles from falling in high winds.
  • Created alternate pathways to re-route power if an outage occurs by adding 200 power poles and eight miles of power lines in Allentown.

Enhanced Natural Gas Delivery System 

  • Replaced over 16-inch steel, high-pressure transmission pipeline from Tremont to East Peoria, Tremont to Pekin, and Pekin to East Peoria to strengthen the integrity and reliability of the natural gas system and enhance public safety.
