Welcome

Welcome! The electric utility industry is changing. In the past, your non-profit, public power utility could keep rates stable and power available for its consumers. Now, the effects of changing markets and new regulations are causing supply shortages and rate increases for electricity. That's why we need your help.

People Power is a grassroots movement of non-profit utility consumers who support the goal of making sure power is affordable and available. By joining People Power, you will learn more about the benefits of buying power from a consumer-owned utility, as well as some of the issues impacting electric rates in the near term. You also will have the chance to contact elected officials who make decisions affecting these benefits, and ultimately your wallet.

Join People Power today and help us remind policymakers that public power is a vital public service.
