Flint Energies to Refund Capital Credits This Month
Flint Energies' Board of Directors has authorized the distribution of nearly $2.0 million in capital credits to members of the Cooperative who purchased power from Flint in 1981 and/or 1982, according to Chief Executive Officer Bob Ray. The refund will completely refund the 1981 capital credits and will refund � of 1982.

"Roughly 11,000 currently active members will receive a bill credit on their primary electric account in September for the amount of their capital credit," said Ray. "Another 1,000 members whose refund exceeds $100 will receive a check from Flint sometime after Sept. 15." The bill credits for amounts smaller than $100 reduce our costs of administration and mailing, he noted.

September WPCA Will Be A Credit
WPCA The Wholesale Power Cost Adjustment (WPCA) listed on Flint Energies member bills will be a credit of $0.0140 in September. On all bills rendered during the month, the separate line item called WPCA will be shown as -$0.0140 per kilowatt- hour (kWh).
