The Dollar Energy Fund provides assistance to residential customers who may be experiencing a hardship which may have been caused due to job loss or illness.
To qualify for assistance, certain guidelines must be met:
- Eligible customers must apply for all available assistance grants including LIHEAP before applying to the Dollar Energy Fund.

- Applicants must have an outstanding balance of at least $100.
Applications for the Dollar Fund are accepted March 1 through October. Please speak to a company representative for detailed grant information.
