Cooperative Purpose & Principles

Like all electric cooperatives, we exist to serve our members and our communities. We are committed to providing safe, reliable, and reasonably-priced electricity and other energy-related services while improving the communities we serve.

Broad River Electric operates as a cooperative and follows the same set of core principles and values that other cooperatives worldwide operate under. These Seven Cooperative Principles are:

  1. Open and Voluntary Membership
  2. Democratic Member Control
  3. Members’ Economic Participation
  4. Autonomy and Independence
  5. Education, Training, and Information
  6. Cooperation Among Cooperatives
  7. Concern for Community

For more information about what these mean, visit America's Electric Cooperatives.
