February 25, 2021



Are you or someone you know struggling to afford your energy bills right now?

A federally funded program may be able to help. The Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, known as LIHEAP, may be able to help you pay your home energy costs through a direct payment to your utility account with Meriwether Lewis Electric Cooperative.

Eligibility requirements for LIHEAP are based on your income and how many people live in your home. To apply, complete an application and submit required documentation to your county’s LIHEAP agency. Area agencies include South Central Human Resources and Highland Rim Resources.

To learn more, visit mlec.com or EnergyRight.com and click on LIHEAP Energy Bill Assistance to find your LIHEAP agency’s contact information and household income guidelines for the State of Tennessee.

MLEC also has a number of free programs to assist its members with lowering energy consumption to help save energy dollars. Heat pump loans, rebates for home insulation, as well as virtual and DIY home evaluations are available. Visit mlec.com for details.

MLEC is a member-owned electric utility that serves Hickman, Houston, Humphreys, Lewis and Perry counties.
