St. Croix Electric

St. Croix Electric Cooperative (SCEC) has been serving members in rural St. Croix County and surrounding areas for nearly 80 years. SCEC was formed on Nov. 5, 1937, as a result of five farmers determined to bring light to the rural landscape. Nearly two years later – May 24, 1939 – electricity was delivered to the first account near Woodville. Today, the Cooperative operates more than 1,760 miles of distribution lines that serve more than 11,000 member accounts. SCEC strives to help members understand the Cooperative Difference by positively impacting local communities through Commitment to Community grants, scholarships, and offering members rebates and solutions to use energy wisely.

St. Croix Electric Cooperative is governed by a nine-member Board of Directors - one director representing each of the nine districts within the Cooperative service area. The Board meets the first Monday of the month at the SCEC office in Hammond. Agendas are posted on the Co-op's website prior to each meeting. Members (e.g. consumer-owners) have a direct voice in the operations of the Cooperative through the election of representatives to the Board of Directors. Each spring, a volunteer nominating committee approves a slate of director andidates to be elected by mail ballot. Director terms are staggered so that one-third of the nine director seats are elected each year. A director's role includes approving policies, long-range planning and providing the resources leading to the accomplishment of the Cooperative's vision for the future.
