Increase in Electric Bill Driven by Higher Power Costs
Rappahannock Electric Cooperative (REC) members will see an increase in the power cost adjustment (PCA) on electric bills issued on or after May 1. This change will increase costs by approximately $9.81 for every 1,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) used, meaning higher use results in a greater impact to the overall bill. Your Cooperative understands this impacts members, and we offer tools and support to help you manage your bill.
Power You Can Count On — Now and in the Future
For nearly a century, power lines spanning wooden poles have been a familiar feature of the rural Virginia landscape. That basic pole and crossarm design, seemingly unchanged since its first use, hints at timelessness and days gone by. It's easy to assume the power lines and grid connected by them are also as timeless and unchanged as the simple poles. In fact, those power lines deliver energy from a grid that uses ever-changing technology.
