Joint Memberships are Encouraged for Riverland Energy Cooperative Members

A joint membership has two names listed on the account and bill. This is most often a spouse. Both people may inquire about account information or makes changes to the service. Although only one vote is allowed per membership, either may cast the vote. Both are entitled to receive any capital credit refunds issued to the account.

A single membership lists one name on the account and bill. Only that person will be able to inquire about specific account information or make changes to his or her service. In addition, only the person listed may vote in the cooperative’s annual election, and any capital credit refunds will be issued in only that person’s name.
