No more deposits, no more monthly electric bills, no more late payment charges, direct control of your energy budget and a user-friendly In Home Display that updates you on your current balance – those are some of the advantages and benefits that the new prepaid metering system will offer to residential members that choose to participate in the program.

Edgecombe-Martin County EMC began offering this account option to new and existing residential members in April 2011. This technology has been shown to help consumers better manage their energy usage, and on average consumers tend to realize a 6-8 percent reduction in their electric energy consumption because the In Home Display makes them more aware of how they are using energy.
