Power Supply Cooperative

A Power Supply Cooperative is a nonprofit organization that provides electricity to its members, typically serving rural or less populated areas. It is owned and operated by the consumers it serves, who collectively manage and finance the electrical infrastructure. Unlike utilities that profit from selling power, cooperatives focus on delivering reliable, affordable electricity through democratic control, with members having a say in decision-making. They often work with larger utility companies or power providers to source electricity while ensuring local needs are met efficiently and sustainably.
