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.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it

What sets the price
