Rochester Gas & Electric and New York State Electric & Gas announced the extension of a program meant to provide relief to customers. New York State’s Public Service Commission approved $672 million for a second round of financial help for customers who did not receive a bill relief credit during the first phase of the program.

In order to be eligible, RG&E customers must have a past-due balance for service through May 1, 2022, reduced through a one-time bill credit. And, up to a maximum of $1,000 for residential customers and $1,250 for small businesses. The maximum is $1,500 for NYSEG customers. Qualifying customers will have their bill credits processed automatically and will be notified once the credit is applied. RG&E customers can click here for more information.
