Rates- Frequently Asked Questions

How does Coos-Curry Electric assign rate classifications and rate structure?

Coos-Curry Electric Cooperative has a systematic and defined process to assign rate classifications and set rate structures. This process examines many factors including the type of service, energy consumption (kWh), demand (kW), voltage, and whether the service is single or poly phase. Taking into consideration both service characteristics (how power is supplied) and end use (what the power is used to accomplish) CCEC assigns each meter the most appropriate rate from the following classes: Residential, General Service, Small Commercial, Large Commercial and Irrigation. The Residential class is the rate group with a $28.38 basic charge.  This rate is designed for electric loads specific to residential consumers or small farms. General Service, applies to services that are non-residential, single phase with demand less than 30 kW.

What is the Base Charge?

This is the most common question we receive regarding our rates. In short, it’s a fair way to divide our costs. Our operating costs can be put into two buckets of costs: fixed and variable.

Fixed costs stay the same regardless of how much energy a member uses. They include maintenance of the lines, billing, and administrative costs. Variable costs are the cost of power and energy we need to purchase to meet our members changing requirements. Our rates are designed so some of our fixed costs are collected from all members whether they use a little energy or a lot.

If we eliminated or reduced the Base Charge our energy rates would have to go up accordingly. Members who live here full time or used a large amount of energy would be subsidizing our members who are part-time residents or who used less.

Is it the Member's Responsibility to Maintain Equipment?

In order to receive electrical service, the property owner is responsible for maintaining their electrical service in safe operating condition.

If your electric service is not in compliance with the National Electric Code, safety standards and local building codes CCEC may be required to deny service until the violation is brought in to compliance.

As a condition of service, you must provide reasonable access, free of vegetation and other obstructions, to CCEC equipment such as your meter.  If your meter or other CCEC equipment is damaged please notify us immediately.

How can I control and manage my energy usage?

You can help control and manage your energy usage with our Home Efficiency Analysis Tool. Visit our conservation page for more programs to help make your home more energy-efficient.
