We support our employees’ potential by providing training, resources, and mentoring. We challenge each other to stretch our abilities and achieve our full potential.

We work together to hone our skills and build our successes. We come from all academic and professional backgrounds and life experiences. We serve thousands of members from all walks of life across our 6-county service territory. We put our members’ interests first.  We are people committed to people, people committed to service.

What Is A Coop?

An electric cooperative is a type of electric utility that is owned by the members it serves. Its profits, or margins, are put back into the cooperative to help run the business efficiently, or are returned to the customer-owner. A co-op exists solely to provide high-quality service at the lowest possible price for its customer-owners.  We are member-owned and community driven.  That’s why it’s important for us to also:

• Assist communities with economic development and revitalization projects.
• Provide infrastructure to support community needs and improve quality of life, such as water/wastewater, satellite TV, and Internet service.
• Support important community organizations, such as volunteer fire departments, schools and local government
• Support educational opportunities by funding scholarships for students within our service areas.
• Educate the public about electric safety.
• Provide community assistance programs such as the Government-in-Action Youth Tour to Washington, D.C., which teaches participatory leadership and citizenship responsibilities.

All cooperative businesses adhere to these seven guiding principles: Voluntary and Open Membership, Democratic Member Control, Members’ Economic Participation, Autonomy and Independence, Education, Training, and Information, Cooperation Among Cooperatives, and Concern for Community.
