Ravalli Electric Co-Op

1051 Eastside Highway, PO Box 190, Corvallis, Montana, United States | Electric Power

Ravalli Electric Co-op is a not-for-profit cooperative with one office located just north of Corvallis, Montana.

We were incorporated in 1936 as part of a national movement which became the Rural Electrification Administration (REA) when rural farmers and ranchers asked the federal government to loan them money to electrify. Rural Montanans didn’t want to be left in the dark just because they didn’t live in the cities.

There are many co-ops in the state of Montana: Missoula Electric, Flathead Electric, Vigilante and Lincoln Electric to name a few. Montana co-ops are all predominantly rural.

Ravalli Electric Co-op was the first co-op in the state. We now serve approximately 8,000 members.

Mission Statement

The mission of Ravalli County Electric Co-op is to meet a changing membership’s need for reliable electric service and innovative energy solutions that are cost-based and affordable.

Member Owned

Ravalli Electric Co-op is owned by its members. If you receive electric service from us, that means you! Rules and guidelines are enacted by a seven-member board of trustees elected for three year terms by the membership (you again!). They are not employees. They are your direct line of influence over the policies and procedures that impact your electrical service.

Non Profit

Ravalli Electric Co-op (REC) is a non-profit corporation. Any funds collected above the cost of operation (called “margins”) are annually transferred back to our members in the form of Capital Credits. Capital Credits are your equity in the co-op. We periodically refund Capital Credits to our members when the financial condition of the cooperative permits. Each year a statement will be mailed to you concerning your Capital Credits. If you have any questions about your equity in the cooperative, contact us.

Billing & Payments

If you are like most people, paying bills is probably not your favorite activity. But here’s what’s kind of cool about electric co-ops… as a member, you are also an owner. This is YOUR organization. You don’t just pay in. Because the Co-op is a non-profit entity, we return profits to our members in the form of Capital Credits.

And you get a say in how the organization is run by exercising your annual right to vote. So, when you pay your bill, you are contributing to the greater good of the entire membership. And when you don’t, that impacts the membership too.

We are proud to have you as a member of Ravalli Electric Co-op. And we’ve tried to make it as easy as possible for you to make your monthly contribution.
