General Service (GS) is available to all non-residential members for single or three-phase service where the permanently connected monthly metered general service demand is equal to or greater than 50 kW for at least three consecutive months.

Commercial and Industrial Interruptible Service (C&I) is available for general service to all  non-residential members who agree to control electrical usage in accordance with the terms of either Control Alternative discussed in the rate schedule. To receive service under this rate, the member should maintain a minimum of 50 kW of controllable load, and the controllable load must remain such as to provide adequate load reduction when requested. Service is subject to the established rules and regulations of the co-op and requires a service agreement between the member and ECE. Supplying service to another party is prohibited.

Each year, ECE reviews the energy-consumption history of our valued business customers and compares this usage with several applicable ECE rates. As a result, we might recommend switching to a different rate to reduce energy costs. This is a free service! Before purchasing new electrical equipment or changing your business hours or production processes, we urge you to contact a Business Accounts Specialist at 1-800-254-7944.

Cost of Basic Service
Every commercial account is charged a basic service charge, no matter how much energy is used. Service is subject to the rules and regulations of the cooperative. This fee is necessary to cover utility poles, wires, transformers, meters, maintenance, and more.
