GVEA’s Bill Calculator<\/h2>\n

You can calculate your monthly bill by utilizing GVEA\u2019s Bill Calculator<\/a>. Select the service type associated with your account and enter your kilowatt-hour (kWh) usage.

Vehicle Plug-ins<\/h2>\n

A well-maintained vehicle only needs 2 to 4 hours of heating time to start (4 to 5 hours for diesel vehicles). Depending on your vehicle, the use of a timer (either programmable or hard-wired) can help reduce your monthly electric bill.<\/p>\n

There are many benefits to plugging in your vehicle when temperatures reach 20\u00ba F or colder.<\/p>\n

Not only do you save on your electric bill, but you also help improve the air quality in the Fairbanks North Star Borough and help prevent unnecessary vehicle maintenance.<\/p>\n
