About Us

Discover The Difference

Our basic business

Nicor Advanced Energy, LLC has been certified as an alternative natural gas supplier with the Illinois Commerce Commission. Nicor Advanced Energy offers energy plans to both residential and small business customers. These plans help customers budget their energy costs — either through price protection or containment, or through billing options that allow for a more predictable monthly energy cost.

Why we're in business

Years ago, consumers were given the opportunity to choose who they purchased their energy from… they no longer had to accept their utility's energy supply and price. Nicor Advanced Energy is in business to offer consumers energy supply options that traditional utilities likely can't offer.

Why we're different
