Aggregation is Back!

2/14/2024

Ashmore has once again teamed up with other local communities to negotiate a great electric rate for our residents!
If you receive a letter from HOMEFIELD ENERGY - don't panic! It's just Homefield's way of letting you know that you are going to get great electricity rates from now until December 2025, at which time we will hopefully be back in negotiations to lock in rates beyond that.
If you receive a letter, you will be enrolled automatically UNLESS you choose to opt out. If you do NOT want to be enrolled, use the pre-paid yellow postcard to opt out.
If you do NOT receive a letter but you want to be in this aggregation program with the rest of the community, then you can call Homefield at 1-866-694-1262 to get switched over.
WHAT IS AGGREGATION?
Your electricity will always be delivered and billed by Ameren, but as a consumer you have the right to choose who supplies that electricity.
Ashmore has negotiated on your behalf so that HOMEFIELD ENERGY will be that supplier. We do this because electricity suppliers can be confusing, and because some supplier companies can be misleading, and because we want you to have the best rate possible. However, you still have a right to get your electricity supply from anyone you want, so if you prefer NOT to get it from Homefield, then that's okay too. Simply opt out using the yellow postcard or by calling 1-866-694-1262.
If you have more questions about how aggregation works or who is currently supplying the electricity for your personal Ameren account, you can call Ameren, Homefield, or the Village of Ashmore, Municipal Office at 349-8332.
