Project Kilo (South Elgin)
White Rose Partners. Denied
White Rose Partners proposed Project Kilo, a 200,000 square foot data center on 20 acres near Route 25 and Kenyon Road in South Elgin, requiring annexation and a special use permit. The South Elgin Village Board of Trustees unanimously rejected the annexation and permit in August 2026 and the village then imposed a temporary moratorium on further data center proposals while it studies regulations.

What it would mean nearby
This case does not change what a household pays today, but it is the main tool Illinois regulators are using to try to stop the cost of new grid equipment for data centers from landing on residential bills. ComEd annual reconciliation rate case (docket 25-0383) adds about $3.10 a month to a typical bill from January 2026. PJM capacity auction price spike hits ComEd supply charges adds about $10.50 a month to a typical bill from June 2025.
