As a member-owner of MTE, you can now become an expert on your energy usage. Not only can your bill report how much energy you use each day, but it can tell you the daily cost, how outside temperature affects your homes energy usage and how your current energy consumption compares to the year before.

Do you have questions about your bill? We're here to help you answer those.

Traditional billing is how members have paid for electricity for more than 80 years. At the end of your billing cycle, you pay for the energy consumed. This is great for those who aren't looking for a change and want to simply pay for what they use.

Using this option, you'll add money to your account before you the electricity is consumed, and we'll calculate your usage each day and deduct your consumption from your account's balance. This option is great for those who want to pay for their electricity as they go or avoid paying a deposit when establishing membership.

By reducing the variation in monthly bills, members can more accurately budget each month. This is perfect for members who want to smooth out the peaks and valleys in billing.

MTE always seeks to improve the member experience. This is why several convenient billing options are offered to fit your lifestyle or financial situation. These billing options are available for most budgets, are easy to understand and easy to use.

Part of the MTE SharingChange program is designed to help defray emergency energy costs for elderly and disabled members as well as those who are not economically self-sufficient.
