What is this bond?

This bond is a financial guarantee provided to Duke Energy Indiana, LLC in place of a standard cash security deposit. It guarantees that the utility customer will pay all monthly electricity bills and associated fees on time. If the customer defaults on their utility payments, the bond compensates Duke Energy for the outstanding balance.

Who needs it?

Commercial businesses and certain residential customers opening new or maintaining existing utility accounts with Duke Energy Indiana, LLC typically need this bond. It is often utilized by businesses with high expected energy usage who prefer not to tie up operating capital in a large cash deposit. Check with your utility representative to confirm if a surety bond is an accepted alternative for your specific account.

Why is it required?

Duke Energy generally requires a deposit to mitigate the financial risk of providing continuous utility services before receiving payment. The bond serves as a layer of protection, ensuring the utility provider is compensated if a customer fails to pay their utility bills. This risk management tool helps keep overall utility rates stable by reducing corporate losses from unpaid accounts.
