We're managing these outages carefully to protect the overall integrity of the region's electric system.

FAQ Answer

The Base Services Charge will be approximately $24 per month for master-metered customers and covers essential costs to maintain the infrastructure which keeps the property connected to the electric grid. Sub-metered tenants will also pay approximately $24 per month, but tenants enrolled in CARE, FERA, or living in qualifying deed-restricted affordable housing receive a discounted Base Services Charge Adjustment.

The Base Services Charge Adjustment amounts will be listed on the master-metered bill for the applicable program enrollments based on unit totals. CARE and FERA tenants will continue to receive their current discounted rates, as well as the discounted Base Services Charge Adjustment. The master meter is responsible to apply the correct Base Services Charge Adjustment to each sub-metered bill, based on the tenant’s enrollment in CARE, FERA, and/or living in qualifying deed-restricted affordable housing.
