Cooperative electricity isn’t profit-driven, it’s people-driven. As an electric cooperative member-owner, you have a voice and a vote in how your electric provider serves you and your business. When you’re a cooperative member, you’re not just a number on a bill, you’re a member of a community. And by working with Great River Energy, you will be part of a nationwide alliance made of more than 600 local, consumer-owned electric cooperatives in 46 states. Touchstone Energy co-ops deliver power and energy solutions to more than 40 million members every day.
