Welcome to cooperative country

Where purpose comes before profits

People are more than a number

And you are part of something bigger

You are a member

Co-op members are why we exist

You set up your electric service account with your local electric cooperative and you think to yourself, “That’s done. Now I just have to pay my monthly bill.” But the truth is, we’re more than just a utility and power provider that you pay each month for electricity. We have more to offer – and we want you to know about the benefits that go along with being a member of a rural electric cooperative.

About Us

Even though your electric cooperative is locally owned and committed to your local community, we are part of something bigger too. We are a network of 51 distribution cooperatives in Missouri, southern Iowa and northeastern Oklahoma, serving 910,000 member homes, farms and businesses. We receive power generation through six regional Generation and Transmission (G&T) cooperatives and one collective G&T, Associated Electric Cooperative.
