  1. What are the typical time-of-use on-peak hours in Illinois?

    Across the 3 residential TOU plans tou.tools tracks in Illinois, the most common on-peak window is 1 PM – 7 PM (2 plans); others run 1 PM – 6 PM.

  3. Do Illinois time-of-use peak hours apply on weekends?

    It depends on the plan. Of the 3 residential TOU plans we track in Illinois, 2 apply on-peak periods every day including weekends, while 1 restrict on-peak to weekdays and treat weekends as off-peak. Many tariffs also treat observed holidays as off-peak; the Days column in each schedule above shows the exact rule.

  4. Do Illinois time-of-use hours change by season?

    Not on the plans we track. All 3 residential TOU plans in Illinois keep the same period hours year-round. Each schedule above lists its exact season dates.

  5. How do I find which Illinois utility serves a specific address or ZIP code?

    tou.tools maps 1,130 Illinois ZIP codes to the utilities that serve them. Because service territories can overlap, a ZIP may return more than one candidate utility; supplying a full street address resolves it to a single utility via a geocoded point-in-territory lookup. The REST API and MCP server both return the matching utility and its current TOU period.
