Con­grat­u­la­tions to Tom Cari­co of Clover. Cari­co’s ques­tion: “Has YEC ever con­sid­ered offer­ing Inter­net ser­vice to their mem­bers?” was select­ed to be answered this month, and he received $25.

Answer: YEC par­tic­i­pat­ed in a small pilot pro­gram with oth­er elec­tric coop­er­a­tives in the state and deter­mined that it was cost pro­hib­i­tive to offer Broad­band Over Pow­er Lines (BPL) at this time. YEC will con­tin­ue to fol­low the research for this offer­ing and will inves­ti­gate any new advance­ments in this tech­nol­o­gy.
