Touchstone Energy
Big Rivers Electric Corporation and our member distribution systems are proud to be Touchstone Energy® partners. Touchstone Energy® is a national alliance of local cooperatively-owned utilities providing high standards of service to customers and their communities.
Generations ago before America's electric cooperatives formed Touchstone Energy®, neighbors joined together to build their own electric utility to power their lives and propel our communities to the future. They built a reputation for integrity, accountability, innovation and community commitment. Now, decades later across the country, our electric co-ops have forged a nationwide alliance, Touchstone Energy®, to power the push to the 21st.century, so customers large and small get quality state of the art technology and personalized service at affordable rates.
More than 600 Touchstone Energy® cooperatives in 42 states are delivering energy and energy solutions to more that 16 million customers every day.
Touchstone Energy® cooperatives are local, active members of their communities committed to serving commercial, industrial and residential customers with integrity, accountability, innovation and community involvement. You will notice we have incorporated the Touchstone Energy® emblem into our advertising, logos and projects because we are proud to be a Touchstone Energy® Partner with our cooperatives and others across the nation.
"It's much more than a graphic addition to our name and logo. It's a commitment to our customers, the member systems we supply energy to. They can count on us, as a locally based and controlled utility, to deliver them reliable, affordable energy services and to be an advocate for their energy and community needs," Big Rivers Electric Corporation President/CEO Mike Core said.
He added, "The dictionary definition of touchstone is a test of genuineness. Touchstone Energy® symbolizes everything that electric cooperatives represent today: electric power, human connections, and the strength of co-ops' commitment to the communities and the consumers they serve."
