Ameren donates $4 million in energy assistance to agencies across Illinois and Missouri

Ameren

Ameren is making additional support available to its customers following this summer's prolonged heat wave.

The utility is offering an additional $4 million for bill payment assistance for residential customers in need of financial assistance across Illinois and Missouri. This follows the $1 million in support for victims of the May 16 tornado that Ameren announced earlier this year, which local area agencies continue to distribute.

Throughout 2025, Ameren reports it has partnered with hundreds of agencies to make more than $75 million available in energy assistance and LIHEAP for its customers.

More information will be available for Ameren customers next week.
