Description:

That the members of BARC Electric Cooperative enjoy the benefits of safe, reliable electricity and other related services that improve their quality of life at fair and affordable prices. An electric cooperative is a member-owned electric utility. It differs from a publicly owned utility in that the member-owner of a cooperative has a voice in leadership through voting rights and is able to attend the annual meeting. Member-owners are also given a share of any profits or margins generated by the electric cooperative, otherwise known as Capital Credits.
