Wireless Colocation
Wireless colocation allows for communication carriers to partner with Ameren, licensing them to attach antennas to our infrastructure. These agreements are one of the many ways Ameren is able to partner with businesses to build stronger infrastructure and lower costs.

Benefits to Ameren Customers
  • Recurring revenue goes into the rate base, which offsets utility operations and maintenance expense for Ameren's customers.
  • The general public sentiment is to rein in the ever increasing pressure to build new communication towers through colocation of multiple attachments on each tower.
  • Colocation spreads the cost of tower construction and maintenance across multiple attachments, reducing the overall cost of wireless infrastructure for the benefit of everyone.
  • Improved wireless coverage/service
