North Carolina’s Electric Cooperatives

From the mountains to the Piedmont and the coast, North Carolina’s 26 electric cooperatives serve members in 93 of the state’s 100 counties. Each not-for-profit cooperative is independent and as diverse as the communities they serve, although the statewide network of co-ops works closely together to ensure all members are served as reliably, affordably and safely as possible.

Over the course of their history, NC co-ops have formed organizations to support the work they do, each with its own governing board of directors made up of representatives from each member co-op. Today, this family of organizations is collectively known as North Carolina’s Electric Cooperatives.
