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
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).
On a member's average bill of 1500 kilowatt hours,
this will amount to a credit of $21.00 on the
September bill.
