Apply for Services
Need to establish service? Here are a few things to consider first.
Traditional Account versus Prepaid Metering
What is best for you?
Traditional Accounts
- Credit checks are required for all new members setting up traditional accounts.
- Subject to security deposits and late fees.
- Monthly due dates are assigned.
- You receive a monthly statement based on the previous month’s usage.
Prepaid Metering
- Offers the flexibility and convenience of paying how much you want, when you want
- Add as much money as you want on your prepaid account and pay as you use.
- No security deposit or credit check required and no late fees because there’s no due date!
- Receive daily notifications regarding your account balance and buy more power at any time by using our convenient payment options.
CT meters, 400-amp service, demand or net metering accounts are not eligible for prepaid metering.
Items Needed When Applying for Service
- Meter number for the new location
- $5 membership fee at the time of application
- Signed Membership Application and Prepaid Service Agreement, if applicable
- Security deposit, if required
- Connection fee
