We are pleased to share that applications are officially open for the BGE Customer Relief Fund—a vital initiative made possible by a one-time charitable donation from Exelon, BGE’s parent company, to the United Way of Central Maryland.
This fund is designed to provide direct financial assistance to eligible low- and middle-income customers in central Maryland who are facing challenges due to rising energy supply costs. Qualified applicants may receive between $250 and $750 in energy bill assistance.
Customers can apply by visiting mdutilityrelief.org.
Applications will be accepted through September 30, 2025, or until all funds are distributed.
Due to high interest, some users may experience intermittent access issues when using the application system, which is managed by United Way. While BGE does not control the platform, we are actively working with United Way to support their efforts and help ensure a smooth customer experience.
This fund is part of BGE’s broader commitment to energy affordability and community support. For more information on additional assistance programs, customers can visit BGE.com/heretohelp.
Thank you for your continued partnership as we work together to provide meaningful relief to those who need it most.
