Empowering Members to Achieve the Possibilities of Tomorrow

Since the mid-1930s, Tennessee Valley power companies have been locally owned, community driven, and dedicated to making their hometowns thrive. Today, 153 consumer-owned power companies fuel communities through reliable, resilient, low-cost electricity, economic development, and other life enhancing services. Our member services are designed to help them and other public power providers achieve success. And while success looks different for each of our members, it is rooted in achieving operational excellence through a highly skilled workforce, connections to new ideas and industry peers, and to resources for growing their business. That’s where we come in.
