- Members pay the same amount each month
- The average and billing amount is updated each year
Auto Pay
On your selected date of choice before the bill is due, your electric bill can be automatically withdrawn each month from a:

Credit/debit card
Late Fees
Monthly billed accounts with balances remaining after the due date are subject to a $10 service charge.
Any previous balance on your monthly billed account will be included in your current bill, with an interest of a 1% late fee.
