Customer Advocate Support

Rhode Island Energy

Supporting you when life gets tough

Managing your energy bill can be challenging, especially during difficult times. Our dedicated customer advocates are here to help you identify the best assistance solutions. Connect with a local advocate at consumeradvocatesRI@rienergy.com

Customer Assistance Expos

Customer Assistance Expos are in-person events where customers can get information about payment plans and assistance programs. Rhode Island Energy employees and representatives from other agencies will be onsite to answer your questions and discuss support options.

What to bring to the Customer Assistance Expo

To enroll in one of our programs, bring a copy of your current year's confirmation letter from your benefits organization. Acceptable confirmation letters include:

  • Supplemental Security Income/SSI
  • Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program/SNAP
  • Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program/LIHEAP
  • Medicaid
  • General Public Assistance
  • Rhode Island Works Program

If you don’t have a confirmation letter, you can bring a qualification card from the Rhode Island Department of Human Services.
