Our Mission? Wake Electric provides reliable, safe and affordable energy and related services. We operate as a cooperative business and continually improve our services to meet the needs of our customers and enhance their quality of life.

How is your electric co-op different?

  • Co-ops are member-owned and locally operated, so your money stays in the community.
  • Members have a voice in how the co-op is run because they elect the co-op’s board of directors.
  • Member ownership means co-ops are accountable to their members, not distant stockholders.
  • Our rates cover the cost of doing business and are not marked up to generate a profit.
  • Co-ops give money back to their members when revenues exceed costs.

Here on this website you can

  • Pay your bill,
  • Discover services and find information that can help you save energy - and money,
  • And much, much more.
    So go ahead. Surf the site and learn why membership has its privileges.
    
         
            
   

            
PURPA Standards Determined

On August 8, 2005 the Energy Policy Act of 2005 was signed into law. Among the many provisions of this federal legislation are five proposed standards having to do with energy conservation and consumer-driven rate management. These proposals were included as amendments to the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 (PURPA). Click on the link above to find out more about the determinations made on those proposals.

 

Wake Electric supplies electric service to approximately 31,500 customers in parts of Durham, Granville, Franklin, Johnston, Nash, Vance and Wake counties in north central North Carolina.
