Cass Electric gives members credit of up to $1 million

FARGO (KFGO-AM) -- If you're a customer of Cass County Electric, expect some money back.

The cooperative's board of directors has okayed what it calls a "purchased power adjustment holiday" for December.

Chief Financial Officer Chad Sapa says customers will see total savings of up to a $1 million.

Sapa says the rebate is a result of lower than expected operating expenses and rapid growth across its system.

Depending on the size of the December bill, customers will either see a credit or receive a check from the cooperative. Cass County Electric has about 39,700 customers.
