Save money on your Arkansas electric bill! The electric bill can be a budget-buster when you’re surviving on a low income. Fortunately, your power company can usually help. There are several unknown or little-advertised programs that power companies may offer that can help lower the cost of your power bill.
Most power companies offer a budget billing plan, which averages the annual cost of electricity in a home and bills the customer in 12 even installments. This can help low-income customers maintain a budget and avert payment problems, especially during the more expensive winter months.

I didn’t see Ozark Electric co op.i do know of LIHEAP but as you informed us of the issues they had. we had funds frozen here and by the time they opened it back up the regular assistance window had closed and the emergency assistance is only available until the end of April.Thank you for all the work you do! It’s amazing to me that organizations don’t put information that helps people with low/ fixed incomes readily available. After COVID and this economy the last few years most people are just barely getting by. I just recently stumbled upon your you tube channels and can’t get enough. Keep up the good work! Kudos 👏 👏👏

Not many people want to help just take! Have a Great day! Donna
