If you're having trouble affording your utility bills, there are some options for help.

Levelized Billing

Levelized Billing helps even out your monthly payments by using a 12-month rolling average of your actual consumption. This is especially helpful for people with electric heat or who use air conditioning. You have to be current in your payments to be eligible for this program. To see if you qualify for this option, please contact our office by calling 973-875-5101 or emailing billing@sussexrec.com.

What is a capital credit retirement?

Capital credits are the margins that Sussex Rural Electric Cooperative, as a member-owned, at-cost organization, allocates to our members as a return on their equitable investment into the Co-op. When finances permit, capital credits are retired to members based on how much electricity each member used in a given calendar year.
