Eastern Maine Electric Cooperative, Inc

Eastern Maine Electric Cooperative (EMEC) is geographically the largest American owned electric utility in the state. EMEC is a private not-for-profit company incorporated in Maine in 1940. Because it is owned by its customer-members rather than foreign stockholders, the employees and member-elected board of directors have an undivided loyalty to those who live and work in Eastern Maine.

EMEC is also a part of a nationwide network of electric cooperatives who share resources, giving an otherwise small company access to expertise, technology and economies of scale greater than companies fifty times its size.
