Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Public Utilities Act. Provides that any gas utility may enter into a contract for up to 20 years of supply with any company for the purchase of synthetic natural gas (rather than a 20-year supply contract with any company for synthetic natural gas) produced from coal through the gasification process if the company has commenced construction of a coal gasification facility by July 1, 2009 (rather than July 1, 2008). Makes changes in factors used to determine whether the cost for synthetic natural gas is reasonable and prudent. Effective immediately.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Provides that if the Illinois Commerce Commission determines that the cost for synthetic natural gas purchased under a specified contract during supply years 11 through 20 (rather than during years 11 through 20) is not reasonable and prudent, then the company shall reimburse the utility for a specified amount.
