KENERGY POLE INSPECTIONS SCHEDULED

Alamon, a pole inspection contractor for Kenergy, will begin inspecting poles in the spring. Each wooden pole Kenergy owns, or is attached to, will be inspected to ensure there are no hazards. Inspectors check for decay, insects, cracks, holes, age, and any damage members may have caused.

You may see trucks in your area bearing a ‘Kenergy Contractor’ magnet. Inspectors will also have an Alamon picture ID with them. Inspectors will be working during daylight hours only. Don’t be alarmed if you see the contractors parked for a few hours and/or riding from pole-to-pole on an all-terrain vehicle.

Inspection areas include Yager, Lewisport, Hawesville, Weberstown, and part of Sullivan. These inspections will be ongoing until the end of July.

If you suspect something irregular or suspicious, please give us a call at 800-844-4832.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PREPAID BILLING NOW AVAILABLE TO KENERGY MEMBERS

A new payment option is now available for Kenergy members. Traditionally, members receive a monthly bill for the electricity they’ve used. Prepaid Billing works just the opposite. This new program is completely voluntary and allows Kenergy members to choose how much and how often they want to pay before they use the electricity.

With this new, innovative program, because participants will pay for electricity in advance, members do not have to pay a deposit, there are no monthly bills, and no late fees.

For more information regarding the new Prepaid Billing program, visit www.kenergycorp.com/prepaid-billing. To sign up for the Prepaid Billing program, visit your local Kenergy office or call 800-844-4832 with questions.

Kenergy is thrilled to announce the three winners for the 2019 Washington Youth Tour. Applicants submitted their academic resume and an essay on a subject they are passionate about. Judges selected the following students as their winners:

Ryan Ward – Daviess County High School (Junior)

Sophia Krampe – Henderson County High School (Junior)

Ella Farmer – Hopkins County Central High School (Junior)

The delegates will travel to Washington, D.C. for an all-expense paid trip this summer. The week-long trip will allow students to learn about leadership, the cooperative model, and also explore the nation’s capital. More than 1,500 students from across America take part in the Youth Tour experience each year. The National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA) has been coordinating this program since the 1950’s.

Congratulations to this year’s winners!

Still need a resolution for 2019?

Resolve to save energy! You’ll reap the benefits from this resolution all year long (and you don’t have to skip out on the bread or dessert to do it!)

Here are 3 easy ways to save energy at home:

1. Install a programmable thermostat. By doing this, you can save an estimated $180 each year!
2. Ditch those incandescent bulbs. These bulbs release 90% of their energy as heat. Time to switch to LEDs instead.
3. Reduce energy used for water heating. Lowering your water heater’s temperature and install low-flow showerheads in each of your bathrooms.

All Kenergy offices will be closed Tuesday, January 1st for New Year’s Day. We hope our members enjoy the holiday and have a safe and healthy 2019.

All Kenergy offices will be closed Monday, December 24 and Tuesday, December 25 for Christmas. We hope our members enjoy the holiday with family and friends.
