From booming suburbs to rural farming communities, America’s electric cooperatives are energy providers and engines of economic growth for 42 million Americans.

Electric co-ops are built by, and belong to, the communities they serve. As we innovate to meet tomorrow’s energy needs, that focus on people instead of profits will lead to stronger rural communities.

Electric co-ops keep the lights on at a cost that their member-consumers can afford. Members 1st Power Cooperative leverages its member systems to control costs and provide affordable and reliable wholesale power to is members.
