The Importance of Reliable Electricity

Reliable electricity is crucial for American consumers, the economy, and national security, as emphasized by local electric cooperatives serving families, businesses, and communities nationwide. These cooperatives advocate for smart energy policies that focus on both reliability and affordability, aligning with the increasing demand for electricity amid rising energy needs. With critical generation resources being retired faster than they can be replaced, there is a pressing need for policies that ensure continuous power supply. The challenges posed by surging electricity demand make the role of electric cooperatives even more significant in shaping the future of energy in America.
