My Membership
Power in Membership
You are a member of one of the fastest growing electric cooperatives in the state and nation. Singing River Electric is the 49th largest out of 809 electric distribution co-ops nationwide and is one of more than 673 Touchstone Energy cooperatives in the United States.
With membership comes benefits, including a vote and a say in how this cooperative is run. Our members vote to elect from their neighbors who lead the cooperative. These members serve, represent neighbors, and have a say in monthly business decisions. Another member benefit is capital credits. Singing River Electric uses rate revenue to operate, make loan payments and electrical system improvements. Any remaining revenue is allocated and returned to the members in the form of capital credits.
We're Local, Like You
Electric co-ops are locally owned and operated by the very members they serve, which means the co-op is always looking out for you with a focus on member needs and local priorities. Member-ownership also guarantees every member has a voice in co-op business decisions. How the co-op is run is up to you.
We Share More Than Electricity
We share the same principles. That’s because electric co-ops are located in the communities they power and work hard to improve quality of life for all. We don't just work here, we live here.
We're Not For Profit
Members know they can trust their electric co-op, because it was created to deliver on the promise of providing safe, reliable and affordable electricity to members – not money for shareholders. Rate revenue is used to operate and make payments on loans. Remaining revenue is allocated to members in the form of capital credits.
We're About Our Communities
Community-friendly values mixed with the cooperative business model is what makes electric co-ops stronger and sets us apart from traditional, investor-owned power companies.
Comfort Advantage is a recognized standard for energy-efficient construction and quality products for the home and business. The benefits of Comfort Advantage are promoted by electric cooperatives who provide electric service to more than 400,000 Mississippi homes and businesses.
Statement of Non-discrimination
Singing River Electric Cooperative is an equal opportunity employer and provider.
