Our Mission

Pioneer Electric Cooperative is committed to exceeding the energy needs and expectations of our consumer-members by providing safe, high quality responsive service at fair prices.

7 Cooperative Principles
  • Voluntary and Open Membership: Cooperatives are voluntary organizations, open to all persons able to use their services and willing to accept the responsibilities of membership.
  • Democratic Member Control: Cooperatives are democratic organizations controlled by their members, who actively participate in setting policies and making decisions.
  • Members’ Economic Participation: Members contribute equitably to, and democratically control, the capital of their cooperative.
  • Autonomy and Independence: Cooperatives are autonomous, self-help organizations controlled by their members. Education, Training and Information: Cooperatives provide education and training for their members, elected representatives, managers and employees so they can contribute effectively to the development of their cooperatives.
  • Cooperation Among Cooperatives: Cooperatives serve their members most effectively and strengthen the cooperative movement by working together.
  • Concern for Community: While focusing on member needs, cooperatives work for the sustainable development of their communities.
