EVERY MEMBER GETS A PIECE OF THE PIE

You're more than a consumer — you're an owner of Butler Rural Electric Cooperative. Capital credits represent this ownership and are one of the most unique and rewarding benefits you enjoy as a member.
Unlike investor-owned utilities that maximize profits to pay shareholders, your not-for-profit co-op provides electricity at cost. At the end of the year, we return portions of our excess funds to members after all expenses have been covered.
The capital credits amount you receive is based on your length of membership and the amount you paid for electric service.
