Investing energy in what matters most

As a cooperative, it is our responsibility to be a trusted energy partner for our customer-owners today – and tomorrow. Walton EMC invests time and resources in these key areas to move us forward, always building on a legacy of distributing safe, reliable, affordable and responsible electricity.

Reliability. We are committed to providing reliable energy for our members who are increasingly dependent on electricity to power their lives and livelihoods. Through investment and innovation, Walton EMC consistently achieves 99.99% dependability.

Members. Walton EMC is owned and democratically controlled by those we serve. Every co-op member is not simply a customer, but a customer-owner with a personal stake and decision-making power. As a not-for-profit cooperative, we put people before profit. Electricity is delivered to members at the cost of service. Any revenue remaining after expenses is returned to members.

Safety. Employees and customer-owners alike benefit because safety is a top priority at Walton EMC. A focused safety program safeguards individual well-being and promotes cooperative efficiency and production. We prioritize electrical safety education to protect employees, members and the public. Resources are allocated for equipment that keeps employees safe while they work.

Employees. Our commitment to Walton EMC members begins with our commitment to co-op employees who demonstrate our values of service, integrity and excellence. We foster a diverse and equitable workplace where all employees feel welcomed. Emphasis is placed on respect and dignity for all. Along with competitive compensation and benefits, Walton EMC offers opportunities that position employees to succeed for our members as well as themselves. We champion growth through continuing education, progressive work-life policies and community service.

Community. Walton EMC supports community resiliency and economic opportunity by providing reliable, affordable and responsible electricity. We work to improve the quality of life in our communities by supporting youth development programs, underwriting scholarships and sponsoring local events.

Service. Prioritizing service to members over profit has consistently earned Walton EMC recognition as best in customer satisfaction among the nation’s electric utilities. We exceed performance expectations by responding to members’ interests and needs with products, services and personalized assistance.
