Budget Billing
Take the guesswork out of your budget!
Your utility bill can take huge swings depending on the season, making it difficult to plan. Budget billing can help you offset increased energy costs for:
Cooling during the summer
Heating during the winter
Budget billing spreads out energy costs throughout the year to make monthly bills more manageable. Your bill will be based on your average consumption for the most recent 12 months.
Each bill will be for the same amount.
Member Qualifications
Members with high consumption due to:
- Air conditioning loads (must be in service for 12 months prior to October 15 to qualify)
- Heating loads (must be in service for 12 months prior to May 1 to qualify)
Program Details
Accounts delinquent twice in a budget year will be removed from the program. The budget amount will be based on the previous 12 months’ KWH average.
Budget billing may be adjusted quarterly if a usage change occurs. The yearly “settle-up-month” will be in:
- October for air conditioning load Members
- May for heating load Members
All budget amounts will be adjusted by the same percentage if REMC’s rates increase or decrease
To begin budget billing, contact our office for a written contract.
Prepaid Metering
You can prepay your account using prepaid metering.
