Visit www.dakotaelectric.com the last week of February to set up your MyDEA account.
Dakota Electric is launching My Dakota Electric Account (MyDEA), a new portal and billing system designed to make managing your electric account simpler, more flexible, and more informative.
What’s changing
- Account numbers will be updated.
- A new online portal and billing system will be available.
- A redesigned electric bill will provide clearer information.
Member feedback guided the upgrade to Dakota Electric’s billing system and online tools. MyDEA replaces the previous portal with a modern platform offering improved functionality and expanded self-service options.
What members need to do
Account setup begins in late February.
• Members with an email address on file will receive a customized link to create their new MyDEA profile. Step-by-step instructions will also be available on our website.
• Important: Existing usernames, passwords, account numbers, and saved payment methods will not transfer for security reasons.
• Members enrolled in automatic payments (EFT) will need to re-enter payment methods to avoid service disruptions.
