As the seasons change and communities settle into a busy time of year, we also take the opportunity to celebrate National Cooperative Month. It’s a time to reflect on what it means to be part of a member-owned organization committed to serving our members and strengthening our communities. As an electric cooperative, we are guided by seven cooperative principles, including cooperation among cooperatives, which is a principle that plays an important role in the work we do every day.
October is a special time for electric cooperatives as we celebrate National Cooperative Month and Careers in Energy Week. It is an opportunity to recognize the people, partnerships and shared values that make cooperatives unique. While members see the end result every time they flip a switch, a dedicated team is working behind the scenes every day to deliver reliable power and exceptional service.
You expect reliable and affordable electric service from your electric cooperative, so how does Slope Electric Cooperative deliver on that promise? A complex network of power generation and tens of thousands of miles of electrical lines work together to ensure enough electricity is available on the coldest winter morning and during the dog days of summer.
As your electric cooperative, our mission is simple: Serve our members, not outside shareholders, while balancing reliability, affordability and long-term sustainability.
