Happy 88th Birthday, REA Energy! REA Energy was originally incorporated on March 4, 1937, as Southwest Central Rural Electric (SCRE). On May 1, 2001, the cooperative officially changed its name to REA Energy Cooperative, Inc. (REA). REA serves rural areas in Armstrong, Blair, Cambria, Clearfield, Indiana, Jefferson, and Westmoreland counties. REA is owned by consumer-members and governed by a board of directors elected by the membership.

When you receive your monthly bill from REA Energy, you’re provided with a summary of how much electricity you used during the billing cycle. Did you know that beyond your energy consumption, there are external factors that can impact the price of electricity? -??????The cost of fuels used to generate electricity fluctuates based on supply and demand. -??????When temps dip (or soar), our home heating/cooling systems work harder and longer to keep us comfortable. Extreme weather can also create electricity supply challenges, which can impact costs. -??????REA Energy must cover the cost of equipment, materials, labor and daily operations to ensure you receive reliable power. This is why you see a flat monthly "access fee" on your bill. -??????Federal energy policies and regulations influence how electricity is generated, distributed and priced, which can have a profound impact on overall costs.
