Make Heating Costs Manageable With Our Market Rate Budget Plan.

Spread your estimated annual fuel costs into equal monthly payments, and continue purchasing fuel at the current market rate.

Simplify Fuel Payments

Balance Your Heating Expenses Across The Entire Year.

Heating fuel use is typically highest during colder months, which can lead to larger seasonal bills. The Stuck Energy Market Rate Budget Plan spreads your estimated annual fuel costs across equal monthly installments.

Instead of paying the full cost of each delivery when it occurs, you make a consistent monthly payment based on your estimated annual fuel usage and costs.

Your fuel is still purchased at the current market rate on the date of each delivery. The plan does not lock in or cap your price. It is designed to make budgeting easier by distributing estimated costs throughout the year.

Note: Budget periods vary by customer start date and always end in June.

Budget Plan Benefits

A More Predictable Way To Pay For Heating Fuel.

Heating expenses can be difficult to predict when most of your fuel is used during the coldest part of the year. This program provides a structured payment schedule that makes those seasonal costs easier to plan for.

  • Payments Begin In July: Start the plan before the primary heating season.
  • Reduced Seasonal Spikes: Avoid paying the full amount of larger winter deliveries at once.
  • Current Market Pricing: Pay the applicable market rate for fuel when each delivery is made.
  • Simpler Household Budgeting: Include a more consistent fuel payment in your monthly expenses.
  • Regular Account Review: Payment amounts may be reviewed when actual usage or fuel costs differ from estimates.

Market Rate Budget Plan FAQs

Get helpful answers before choosing the right commercial fuel delivery partner for your business.

How Does The Market Rate Budget Plan Work?

Stuck Energy estimates your annual fuel costs and divides that amount into 12 monthly payments. Fuel deliveries are charged to your account at the applicable market rate.

Will My Monthly Payment Always Remain The Same?

Not necessarily. Stuck Energy may adjust your payment if actual usage, market prices, or account activity differs from the original estimate.

What Happens If I Use Less Fuel Than Expected?

Your account may have a lower balance than projected. Stuck Energy can explain how that amount will be handled under the current program terms.

Does The Budget Plan Guarantee That I Will Not Run Out Of Fuel?

No. A payment plan does not monitor your tank or schedule deliveries. Automatic Delivery, paired with compatible monitoring, can provide added convenience and help reduce runout risk for qualifying customers.

What Household Changes Should I Report?

Report changes in occupancy, heating equipment, thermostat use, supplemental heat, renovations, generator use, or extended vacancies.
