MICHAEL CALLAHANExecutive Vice PresidentCEOWife Melissacallahanepaofmscom

During my visits with directors and employees of localelectric power associations I often hear the phrase ldquowe arefamilyrdquo

As a father and husband I value very much the familyinstitution Traditionally families have been the basic unitthat instills values and leads by example But many boast ofbeing family and do not live up to their claim

I have discovered this is not true with the electric powerassociation family With us itrsquos not an old saying often spo-ken but meaning nothing Itrsquos true we are indeed a familyOur large family is made up of more than 3000 men andwomen who have remained true to cooperative values andserve as leaders in the communities we serve Today whenan electric co-op board member or employee speaks thesewords itrsquos based on true life experiences

As your statewide trade association we are proud to be apart of this family Our employees some of whom haveserved you for decades are deeply committed to serve youefficiently and effectively As a family member we holddear the trust you have placed in us to convey your messageto the more than 750000 cooperative members electedofficials and community leaders

We are committed to upholding our tradition of serviceand the truth that ldquowe are familyrdquo We have a great familyand Irsquom proud to be a part of it

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

I have discovered this is not true with the electric powerassociation family With us itrsquos not an old saying often spo-ken but meaning nothing Itrsquos true we are indeed a familyOur large family is made up of more than 3000 men andwomen who have remained true to cooperative values andserve as leaders in the communities we serve Today whenan electric co-op board member or employee speaks thesewords itrsquos based on true life experiences

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

During my visits with directors and employees of localelectric power associations I often hear the phrase ldquowe arefamilyrdquo

As a father and husband I value very much the familyinstitution Traditionally families have been the basic unitthat instills values and leads by example But many boast ofbeing family and do not live up to their claim

I have discovered this is not true with the electric powerassociation family With us itrsquos not an old saying often spo-ken but meaning nothing Itrsquos true we are indeed a familyOur large family is made up of more than 3000 men andwomen who have remained true to cooperative values andserve as leaders in the communities we serve Today whenan electric co-op board member or employee speaks thesewords itrsquos based on true life experiences

As your statewide trade association we are proud to be apart of this family Our employees some of whom haveserved you for decades are deeply committed to serve youefficiently and effectively As a family member we holddear the trust you have placed in us to convey your messageto the more than 750000 cooperative members electedofficials and community leaders

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

During my visits with directors and employees of localelectric power associations I often hear the phrase ldquowe arefamilyrdquo

As a father and husband I value very much the familyinstitution Traditionally families have been the basic unitthat instills values and leads by example But many boast ofbeing family and do not live up to their claim

I have discovered this is not true with the electric powerassociation family With us itrsquos not an old saying often spo-ken but meaning nothing Itrsquos true we are indeed a familyOur large family is made up of more than 3000 men andwomen who have remained true to cooperative values andserve as leaders in the communities we serve Today whenan electric co-op board member or employee speaks thesewords itrsquos based on true life experiences

As your statewide trade association we are proud to be apart of this family Our employees some of whom haveserved you for decades are deeply committed to serve youefficiently and effectively As a family member we holddear the trust you have placed in us to convey your messageto the more than 750000 cooperative members electedofficials and community leaders

We are committed to upholding our tradition of serviceand the truth that ldquowe are familyrdquo We have a great familyand Irsquom proud to be a part of it

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

During my visits with directors and employees of localelectric power associations I often hear the phrase ldquowe arefamilyrdquo

As a father and husband I value very much the familyinstitution Traditionally families have been the basic unitthat instills values and leads by example But many boast ofbeing family and do not live up to their claim

I have discovered this is not true with the electric powerassociation family With us itrsquos not an old saying often spo-ken but meaning nothing Itrsquos true we are indeed a familyOur large family is made up of more than 3000 men andwomen who have remained true to cooperative values andserve as leaders in the communities we serve Today whenan electric co-op board member or employee speaks thesewords itrsquos based on true life experiences

As your statewide trade association we are proud to be apart of this family Our employees some of whom haveserved you for decades are deeply committed to serve youefficiently and effectively As a family member we holddear the trust you have placed in us to convey your messageto the more than 750000 cooperative members electedofficials and community leaders

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

The power to these three houses is deliveredby different single-phaselines Therefore it is possible for one of thesehouses to have powerwhile the others do noteven though they are with-in sight of one another

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

The power to these three houses is deliveredby different single-phaselines Therefore it is possible for one of thesehouses to have powerwhile the others do noteven though they are with-in sight of one another

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

The power to these three houses is deliveredby different single-phaselines Therefore it is possible for one of thesehouses to have powerwhile the others do noteven though they are with-in sight of one another

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

The power to these three houses is deliveredby different single-phaselines Therefore it is possible for one of thesehouses to have powerwhile the others do noteven though they are with-in sight of one another

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

The power to these three houses is deliveredby different single-phaselines Therefore it is possible for one of thesehouses to have powerwhile the others do noteven though they are with-in sight of one another

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

The power to these three houses is deliveredby different single-phaselines Therefore it is possible for one of thesehouses to have powerwhile the others do noteven though they are with-in sight of one another

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

The power to these three houses is deliveredby different single-phaselines Therefore it is possible for one of thesehouses to have powerwhile the others do noteven though they are with-in sight of one another

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

The power to these three houses is deliveredby different single-phaselines Therefore it is possible for one of thesehouses to have powerwhile the others do noteven though they are with-in sight of one another

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

The power to these three houses is deliveredby different single-phaselines Therefore it is possible for one of thesehouses to have powerwhile the others do noteven though they are with-in sight of one another

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned bythe members it serves A member is any customer who has an account with the electricpower association As a not-for-profit an electric power association pays capital credits tomembers or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the yearn A board of directors composed of members elected by the membership governs anelectric power association e board establishes bylaws policies and rates that reflect theindividuality and needs of the membership As local leaders directors are responsive tolocal needsn Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in thewell-being of their community ey embody the cooperative spirit of communityinvolvement by participating in worthwhile causesn Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their membersreduce energy costsn Mississippirsquos electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each otherrestore service to members during major power outages ey may also obtain assistancefrom (or offer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives

For more than 70 years electric power associations have served Mississippi with reliable electric service at some of the lowest rates in the nation We have been the sole source of power for thousands of Mississippians in small communitieslarge towns and remote rural areas

Our electric cooperatives have long been in the forefront of local efforts to attractjobs and enhance economic opportunity throughout the state We bring peopletogether in a unified effort to improve the quality of life for our members and thecommunities where they live and work

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark

THE DELIVER Y O F ELECTRICITY

Some homes have power others donrsquot WHYThe way electric power systems are built creates situa-

tions where neighbors may be with and without electric-ity at the same time

Generators of power transmit that power throughhigh-voltage lines to local distributors at substations Anumber of circuits then lead from the substations toclusters of homes and businesses

If a transmission line goes out huge areas can be left

without power If all or part of a substation fails big sec-tions of a community may lose power

Electricity is delivered from substations to consumersthrough three-phase lines

Single-phase residential power is fed from one of thoseline segments making it possible for homes hooked toone line to have power while nearby homes hooked toeither of the other lines to remain dark
