This National Co-op Month, we thank Cumberland Valley Electric Cooperative for helping power more than homes and businesses. Their dedication to community, service and cooperative principles helps strengthen the region and improve lives every day.
As we gather at the NRECA Regional Meeting, we appreciate electric co-op leaders and board members who are speaking up and showing up - always in the interest of consumer-members.
Shout out to United Utility Supply for sponsoring the conference and leading on supply solutions and service.
Kentucky Electric Cooperatives is proud to present State Representative Patrick Flannery (R–Olive Hill) with our 2026 Power Partner Award.
Rep. Flannery has long been a supporter of Kentucky’s electric cooperatives and was floor manager of the fuel adjustment clause bill during the 2026 ...legislative session (SB 172). This legislation protects consumers from bill spikes after extreme weather events when fuel prices increase.
Rep. Flannery is a member of both the Kentucky Rural Electric Cooperative Caucus and the House Natural Resources and Energy Committee.
Thanks to Grayson Rural Electric for hosting our presentation and for continued leadership and advocacy for co-op consumer-members.
