The agreement only pertains to ComEd and will not extend allegations of misconduct to Exelon. Certain groups, like the advocacy group Public Citizen, argue that Exelon should face greater consequences for the bribery charge of its Midwest subsidiary. "Right now, the stench of Exelon is so severe that if Exelon plays any role whatsoever in decisionmaking at [PJM Interconnection], that reflects really poorly on PJM, and PJM should acknowledge that and take affirmative action in the form of banning Exelon from having any participation in PJM for the next three years," Tyler Slocum, Public Citizen's Energy Program director, told Utility Dive. The group maintains the positive that Exelon should not be able to continue its participation in any regional transmission organization over the three-year period of ComEd's deferred prosecution agreement.
