Steadfast and true to YOU

You can count on YEC to get your lights back on in a storm, but it is impor­tant to rec­og­nize the work we do to guar­an­tee reli­able ener­gy. Pro­vid­ing a lev­el of ser­vice that removes the feel­ing of doubt is our goal each day. We want you to know your lights will come on, your water will be hot, your phones will be charged and, most impor­tant­ly, the elec­tric­i­ty you use is safe. Sim­i­lar­ly, in the event of an out­age, we want you to have peace-of-mind that your Coop­er­a­tive will work dili­gent­ly to restore pow­er.

Con­tin­ued main­te­nance on the YEC sub­sta­tions and lines deliv­er­ing pow­er to your home is nec­es­sary to pre­serve our high stan­dards of ser­vice. We are cur­rent­ly rebuild­ing our India Hook sub­sta­tion locat­ed on Mt. Gal­lant Road replac­ing out­dat­ed equip­ment where high volt­age lines enter the sub­sta­tion, to improve reli­a­bil­i­ty. We are also adding anoth­er trans­former to the Lake­view sub­sta­tion locat­ed on High­way 21 North to increase capac­i­ty to with­stand the growth in our area. Con­struc­tion on both loca­tions will be com­plet­ed this sum­mer. These upgrades also include improved tech­nol­o­gy to help iso­late out­ages and improve restora­tion times.

This work, and our unwa­ver­ing com­mit­ment to our mem­bers, shows you can depend on YEC–to plan for the future, to put in the work, to keep you updat­ed on your Coop­er­a­tive, and to look out for you.
