Increasing Reliability Issues
The year 2011 has been quite a challenge for ComEd as the reliability of its service has significantly declined when compared to recent years and other utility companies. Since the Blizzard of 2011 there were widespread power outages that have occurred in its service area in subsequent storms; Most notably the storms of June 29, 2011, July 11, 2011 (was ComEd's largest outage in its history) and on August 2, 2011. All of these storms have knocked out power to at least 40% of its customers and has caused a lot of frustration towards the company.

Famous quotes containing the words increasing and/or issues:
“The frequency of personal questions grows in direct proportion to your increasing girth. . . . No one would ask a man such a personally invasive question as “Is your wife having natural childbirth or is she planning to be knocked out?” But someone might ask that of you. No matter how much you wish for privacy, your pregnancy is a public event to which everyone feels invited.”
—Jean Marzollo (20th century)
“To make life more bearable and pleasant for everybody, choose the issues that are significant enough to fight over, and ignore or use distraction for those you can let slide that day. Picking your battles will eliminate a number of conflicts, and yet will still leave you feeling in control.”
—Lawrence Balter (20th century)
