About Us

Customer-Owned Power for Texans!

Visit the NEC corporate website for the NEC Bylaws, Statement of Nondiscrimination & more downloadable documents

The Nueces Electric Cooperative Retail Division is your best choice for your Retail Electric Provider (REP) in Texas. We offer competitive rates, in addition to membership in Nueces Electric Cooperative, Inc. (NEC). This means that you become an owner of your REP, a division of a not-for-profit electric cooperative, and that's something you can't get with any other REP in Texas! The benefits of electric co-op membership go far beyond the not-for-profit power we supply to you.

Electric co-ops are accountable to you! We are owned by
you and the other members and you elect a Board of Directors
among yourselves to represent your interests in the business
decisions that are made at NEC.

Electric co-ops have four core values - integrity,
accountability, reliability and a commitment to the communities
we serve. We live and operate by these values and they drive
every business decision we make in order to serve you!

Capital Credits! As a co-op, NEC will send you a notice each
year that indicates your "capital credits allocation" for the
previous year. That means if at the end of the previous year,
NEC had margins or "profits" then those will eventually be
paid to you and our other members who received service from
NEC in the previous year. The allocated capital credits go into
your "capital credit account" at the co-op and every so often,
the Board of Directors will pay some of these to you and the
other members in the form of a bill credit or a cash payment.
