Got contacted by a mid-size church in Florida Power & Light territory. About $1,900/month average bill. Are there any special rate schedules or considerations for religious organizations? I know some utilities offer nonprofit rates but not sure about the specifics.

Church accounts - any special considerations?
Most utilities do have special nonprofit or religious rates, but the church has to apply for them - they don't get applied automatically. I found a Methodist church in Ohio that had been on commercial rates for 8 years when they qualified for nonprofit pricing. Saved them about $300/month.
That's exactly what I was wondering about Darrell. I'll check FPL's tariff schedules for nonprofit options. $300/month adds up quickly - that's a nice ongoing savings for them.
