2026 Rate Changes

2026 RATE CHANGES

Coastal Elec­tric Coop­er­a­tive will imple­ment a rate increase begin­ning May 1. While we work to keep rates sta­ble and afford­able, the cost of pro­vid­ing elec­tric­i­ty has increased. Our last rate increase was in 2014, and we hope this adjust­ment will posi­tion us to recov­er ris­ing costs and con­tin­ue to pro­vide reli­able ser­vice for the next 10 years.
