About Kansas Electric Cooperatives

KEC is the Kansas statewide service organization for 26 electric distribution cooperatives and three generation and transmission cooperatives. Formed on Aug. 18, 1941, and headquartered in Topeka, KEC represents the interests of, and provides needed services and programs to, the electric co-ops that serve Kansans. The banding together into one statewide association provides greater efficiency and economy of operations for all the distribution cooperatives, regardless of size.

Through KEC, the individual co-ops share in the advantage of a larger utility operation, but maintain control and ownership at the local level. A 29-member board of trustees, one trustee representative from each of the KEC member systems, guides the association. The KEC Board of Trustees meets six times annually.

KEC provides extensive legislative and regulatory advocacy at the state and national levels, education, public relations, safety/loss control, legal support and a large selection of communication services including a statewide consumer magazine, news releases, advertising, and creative services. KEC develops and coordinates training and safety programs for electric cooperative employees and directors. Other specialized services include youth programs, safety device inspections, coordination with regulatory agencies', policies and procedures, and other services provided more efficiently as a collective. A Touchstone Energy Regional Member, KEC is the united service representative for its members.

KEC functions for the mutual benefit of its members to promote rural electrification and foster the principles on which electric cooperatives were founded.
