About Mid-Ohio Energy
Mid-Ohio Energy Cooperative is dedicated to the delivery of quality, safe, and reliable electricity and associated products which better serve the lives of our members and communities. |
 |
We are a member-owned electric distribution cooperative located in Kenton, Ohio. Energy is supplied to our grid by Buckeye Power Inc. (BPI). BPI is responsible for the generation and transmission of electric power to all 24 of the distribution cooperatives that serve members in Ohio.
Mid-Ohio Energy is responsible for over 1,300 miles of line and serves more than 8,200 meters. An average of 6 consumers-per-mile enables us to recognize the unique needs of our members. The Cooperative has two offices (located in Kenton and Marion) and serves members in parts of 10 counties: Marion, Hardin, Allen, Morrow, Wyandot, Crawford, Union, Auglaize, Logan and Hancock.
Your Cooperative is a not-for-profit organization governed by the members that we serve. Members have a voice in the operation and control of the cooperative through the election of trustees. The Board of Trustees consists of nine members—each representing a district within the co-op’s service territory. Board members are elected at the Annual Meeting which is held in April.
Mid-Ohio Energy is proud to be recognized as a Touchstone Energyâ Cooperative. Touchstone Energy is a national brand that requires adherence to the principles of Integrity, Accountability, Innovation and Commitment to Community. This national alliance of over 600 cooperatives helps build a national brand that is dedicated to serving the needs of members.
There are seven guiding principles that set cooperatives and their members apart from all other service providers. Those principles are as follows:
- Voluntary and open membership
- Democratic member control
- Members’ economic participation
- Autonomy and independence
- Education, training, and information
- Cooperation among cooperatives
- Concern for community
