Flickering lights caused by high winds
UPDATED: 03/15/2026

Members may experience flickering lights during today’s high winds. This quick “blink” is our system working to protect the grid and prevent a much longer power outage. If your power stays off for more than a few minutes, please check the breakers in your home before reporting an outage.

UPDATED: 02/10/2025

Capital credits coming in January 2019

Tipmont REMC will be retiring capital credits from 1987 beginning with the December 22, 2018 billing cycle.

The capital credits being returned reflect those members’ contribution of capital to, and ownership of, the cooperative during those years. Those funds helped us build, maintain and expand a reliable electric distribution system and cover emergency expenses.

Eligible members receiving more than $15 will receive a check in the mail. Members receiving less than $15 will receive a bill credit.

Do we owe you money?

If a capital credit check is returned (usually because of an incorrect address) or not cashed within six months (180 days), we publish your name in the unclaimed credits database at tipmont.org/unclaimed. You can search this database of unclaimed credits and initiate a claim for any capital credits that may belong to you.
