The fixed monthly charge is a monthly investment that helps us cover the expenses of maintaining the overall electric system. Combatting cybersecurity threats and maintaining poles, wires, substations and co-op equipment takes strategic planning and significant resources. The fixed monthly charge essentially ensures that all equipment operates properly and staff is trained and ready so the lights turn on when you need them.
As an electric cooperative, we believe the operational costs should be spread fairly and equitably across all of our members, regardless of the level of electricity use. That is why every member pays the fixed monthly charge each month to cover basic operational costs.
Your monthly investment ensures you have access to safe, reliable and affordable power when you need it.
