Touchstone Energy

Touchstone Energy is a nationwide marketing alliance of locally owned and operated electric cooperatives which have joined in a common commitment to provide superior and responsive service to residential and business customers. These cooperatives, known as Touchstone Energy Cooperatives, are pledged to operate with integrity, accountability, innovation, and a spirit of community awareness.

For almost two generations, America’s electric cooperatives – owned by and committed to the members they serve – have been bringing reliable high-quality service and safe, affordable energy to regions that municipal and investor-owned power companies would not serve. In small towns and rural and suburban America, millions of families and businesses continue to benefit from the innovation and integrity that electric cooperatives offer.

As electric utilities experience the effects of a growing number of state and federal initiatives aimed at deregulating the electric industry, many utility operations are being restructured. In view of these changes, electric cooperatives across the nation have banded together under the Touchstone Energy banner to bring to light their traditional advantages – as well as the expanding possibilities that Touchstone Energy will offer.

Today, hundreds of electric cooperatives are represented in a national Touchstone Energy advertising and branding campaign designed to focus on the enhanced value that cooperatives offer. These ads point out that electric cooperatives will continue to serve their members and communities as they have done for many years. Our cooperative’s participation as a Touchstone Energy Partner simply means we have joined other electric cooperatives committed to providing superior service at affordable rates. This partnership combines the advantages of a strong local presence and the expertise and resources of a nationwide network.
