Budget Billing

How does Budget Billing work?

We will total the amount of electricity you used over the past 12 months, and then we will divide that amount by 12 to get a monthly average. Your first Budget Billing bill will be based on that average. Future bills may fluctuate a few dollars each month, because your average is calculated on the immediate past 12 months. So it’s a rolling average. If your bill is $5 and 10% higher than your average bill, we will adjust your account to accommodate for the increased usage on the next bill.
