Managing Billing Collections, Shut-Off Prevention & Reconnection Workflows with Regulatory Precision
Utilities and energy providers operate in a highly regulated environment where collections directly impact customer safety, compliance, and public service standards. Late payments, disconnection risks, and high-volume billing questions require a partner that can manage sensitive communications while protecting brand trust and regulatory compliance.
Fusion CX’s Utilities & Energy Collections Services use a blend of skilled agents, AI-driven analytics, digital engagement tools, and customer-first communication to help providers reduce delinquencies, streamline billing operations, and maintain consistent, positive customer relationships.
Industry Challenges We Solve
Utilities and energy organizations face unique operational and regulatory challenges:
Highly Regulated Collections Environment
State utility commissions impose strict guidelines on shut-offs, notifications, credit holds, and vulnerable customer protections.
Sensitivity Around Service Continuity
Utilities are essential services, meaning communication must be empathetic, transparent, and precise.
Complex Billing Structures
Budget billing, variable rates, payment plans, and seasonal adjustments create confusion for many customers.
High Call Volume During Peak Seasons
Extreme weather, billing spikes, and usage surges drive significant customer inquiries.
Late Payments & Past-Due Accounts
Delinquencies impact cash flow, operational continuity, and customer satisfaction.
