The City of Arvada receives a grant from Energy Outreach Colorado (EOC) to provide financial assistance with Xcel bills to Arvada residents who are at risk of having their electric and/or gas service disconnected. Financial assistance is made available to help those behind in paying their gas and/or electric bill because of adverse one-time circumstances in their lives such as illness, loss of job, or high medical bills. Residents can receive this assistance only once during this time, and assistance is disbursed on a first come first served basis. If funds are exhausted, applicants must wait until the beginning of the next quarter. If your bill is at least one day delinquent or if you have received a shut off notice from Xcel Energy, assistance is available.
Criteria for this assistance:
- Must be an Arvada resident
- Bill has to be at least one day in the arrears
- Valid ID
- Applicant must reside at Xcel service address and show proof if needed.
EOC funds cannot be used for deposits.
