UDWI REMC Announces a Rise in Rates for 2026

Utilities District of Western Indiana REMC announces a 2% increase in residential rates in 2026 followed by a 1% increase in 2027 and 2028— a total 4% increase over the next three years. The rate adjustment is the first increase to UDWI’s base rates since 2014 and has become necessary due to inflation, rising operational costs and the overall cost of power predicted in the coming years.

As many are aware, the Westside of Bloomington suffered significant damage from the tornado that moved through the area last night.

Our crews and contractors have been working tirelessly throughout last night and today to rebuild lines, set new poles, and restore service to the thousands of members impacted.

The pictures are only a small glimpse into the damage that we're working through - we appreciate your patience and understanding.

We're hopeful that the Fieldstone subdivision will be brought back online by tonight - but please understand there may be some areas that carry into tomorrow.

We will continue to work until every member is back in power!
Please stay safe.
