Members who have electric heat as their primary source of heat and have an alternative fuel as backup currently have "Dual Fuel". You may also purchase electric water heaters from the cooperative at a 50 percent discount. New water heaters installed under this program must be a minimum capacity of 80 gallons.

Your Dual Fuel system is metered separately and a radio receiver is attached to receive the signal from our power supplier.

Dual Fuel is normally controlled during the winter months, when the temperature drops. Control times are normally in the evening starting around 5:00 p.m. and being controlled until around 11:00 p.m. during the coldest weather. However, these loads may be controlled for extended periods of time.

If you install your water heater to this system it will be controlled during the same time periods as your Dual Fuel.

Your rate per kilowatt will also be the same as your Dual Fuel.

Water heaters installed under the Dual Fuel Program are eligible for the same service work policy as the "Demand Saver" Program.
