- Service Availability Charge: This charge of 50 cents a day covers the cost of bringing electricity to your home, and does not include energy.
- Dusk to Dawn Charges: Optional 30 cents / per day for energy and maintenance (where available)
- Green Power: You can choose to purchase part of your monthly energy from renewable sources. If you purchase Green Power a separate monthly charge will appear on your bill.
- Power Quality Plus: Equipment is available for you to purchase or lease. When applicable, monthly lease charges appear on your bill.
- Local and State Taxes: Taxes may vary by city, county and predominant use of electricity designated when you apply for service (residential, commercial, etc.)
- Operation Round Up: Your participation is voluntary. If you choose to pay the itemized Operation Round Up amount, your electric bill is "rounded up" to an even dollar each month. Your extra pennies (one cent to 99 cents) will help support education, health, youth, home weatherization, emergency service and community services in your local area each month. Contributions go to the Cuivre River Electric Community Trust, and are tax deductible.
