Sussex Rural Electric Cooperative wants to work with its members who have been struggling to pay their bills. Please contact our Member Services team to set up a payment arrangement that will allow you to pay off any past due amounts over time as you resume paying your regular monthly bill.

Our Member Services center is available from 8 am until 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday, at 973-875-5101.

Every home, business, or other structure powered by Sussex Rural Electric Cooperative has an SREC-owned electric meter installed on the outside. Your Cooperative uses data collected by your home's meter to determine how much electricity was used during a given billing period.

More About Utility Scams

Utility scams are common because of the vast number of utilities that exist, and consumers are understandably anxious at the idea of their utility notifying them of a sudden, unexpected disruption to their service. Secondly, new products and services in the energy industry provide an opening for scammers and pop-up companies to provide misleading information or shady products and services.

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.

In 2019 and 2020, Sussex Rural Electric Cooperative shared weekly #MondayMoneySavers on social media to promote energy efficiency and spread awareness of ways members can reduce their monthly electric bills.

If you've been a member of Sussex Rural Electric Cooperative for a while, you've probably heard of capital credits.
