Supporting our member-consumers goes beyond providing electric service. We want to be your trusted resource for all things electric.

As your co-op’s CEO, keeping you informed about the current trends in the electric industry is something I take very seriously. The electric industry is changing at a rapid pace. Tomorrow’s trends will affect how we deliver electricity and how you use it. 

In each issue, on page 5 of the magazine, I share what’s new in the industry and how it will affect you. But, after chatting with some of you at events like our member appreciation day/annual business meeting or out in the community, I learned that some of our member-consumers wanted information about energy and industry topics that I may not have delved into before. 

We want to give you the best possible answer when you have questions and to engage with you to fulfill our mission of being a trusted resource. That’s why we are starting something new and need your help. 

Starting next month, I want to begin centering my column around what is on your mind. If there is a topic that has left you wondering, let me know and we might make it a future topic in the magazine. 

Kankakee Valley REMC exists to provide high-quality service to our membership. As a trusted information partner, we strive to add more value to your co-op membership. 

Not only do I look forward to hearing from you and seeing your questions, I look forward to providing you with the information you desire. 

To share your question or topic idea, visit kvremc.com/in-connection or scan the QR code below, then click on the “CEO Column Idea” tab. If we select your topic, I will send you a $25 Amazon gift card. The only requirement is that your topic be relevant to the electric utility industry or your cooperative.
