What it is and who needs it.
What the deposit bond actually does
Jackson Energy Cooperative is a member-owned electric distribution cooperative serving more than 53,000 memberships across 15 counties in eastern and central Kentucky. Before it connects or continues service to a commercial account, the cooperative — like most electric utilities — can require security against an unpaid final bill, and will accept a surety bond in place of that cash deposit.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Jackson Energy Cooperative (the obligee). If your account goes unpaid and the cooperative draws on the bond, you repay the surety — the bond is not insurance for you, and it frees the cash a deposit would otherwise hold.
The cooperative sets the amount under its own account rules rather than a state formula, generally scaled to your expected monthly usage. Confirm the figure Jackson Energy gave you before applying; we issue whatever amount the cooperative specifies, from $100.
