Plan Ahead with Predictable Monthly Payments


Seasons change, cooling costs rise and fall, and your energy use varies. This can make it difficult to anticipate your utility bill costs. That’s why we offer Budget Billing for your business. Budget Billing is our free program designed to help with the fluctuation of your monthly electric bills. Instead of paying your total energy used each month, you would pay an average amount spread out through the year until your bills are paid in full.

Budget Billing 101

How it Works

Budget Billing balances the highs and lows of your monthly bills throughout the year to create a predictable payment amount that’s about the same every month.

Your monthly Budget Billing payment will be an average of your recent energy bills. Payments may vary slightly to cover the cost of your actual usage, but this won’t occur more than once per quarter.

Budget Billing Example
The settle-up balance, noted on your monthly bill, is the difference between your Budget Billing payment and your actual cost of usage over time. For example:
  • If your Budget Billing amount is $100, but your actual charges for the month are $75, you’d have a credit of $25.
  • If your Budget Billing amount is $100, but your actual charges are $125, you’d have a debit of $25.

You would continue to pay your set Budget Billing amount of $100 each month. If your debit or credit becomes too large, we will adjust your Budget Billing payment.

If you unenroll in Budget Billing, your debit or credit balance will be added to your next bill, which will be adjusted to reflect this change.

 

Am I eligible for Budget Billing?

To qualify for Budget Billing:

  • Your account must be current without any past-due balances.
  • Your account cannot be enrolled in a Payment Arrangement.
  • Accounts with Green Choice, solar plans, landlord agreements or non-metered services are not eligible.
  • There is no minimum billing history required for residential customers. However, the more history you have (up to 12 months), the more accurate your average monthly payment will be. Business customers must have at least three months of billing history to qualify.
