At BCREMC, we understand the financial pressures that rising wholesale power costs can place on households and businesses. Thats why we are taking proactive steps to support our members with a monthly refund listed on your bill as BCREMC Wholesale Power Cost Relief. Your refund amount is based on the kilowatt-hours (kWh) you use.

The power we purchase from our wholesale provider, Hoosier Energy, is subject to price fluctuations.

These changes appear on your bill as the Wholesale Tracker, a pass-through charge based on your kWh consumption. The tracker is recalculated and adjusted quarterly to reflect wholesale market conditions.

On bills arriving mid-October and early November, members will see:

  • 4th quarter wholesale power tracker set at $0.015778 per kWh
  • October relief credit of $0.005245 per kWh
  • Net tracker charge of $0.010533 per kWh

This initiative goes beyond providing financial relief. It reflects BCREMCs commitment to keeping power safe, reliable, and affordable while helping ease the impact of unpredictable market changes.
