If you find yourself unable to pay your electric bills, your electric cooperative wants to work with you to keep your lights on.

Never resort to tampering with your meter or trying to reconnect power yourself. These acts are extremely dangerous and illegal.

‘No-cost’ things you can do to save electricity.

Close your drapes in summer to keep the direct sunlight from heating up the house.

Contact your electric co-op for more advice and/or schedule a visit to your home by its energy advisor who can find other ways to save.
