The Energy Cooperative

Started in 1979 as a spin off from Weavers Way Food Co-op, The Energy Co-op has expanded over the years to become a provider of renewable electricity, including solar, wind, hydropower, bio-mass, and bio-diesel.  The cooperative has a three-fold mission:  1) to provide energy cost savings, education, and advocacy on behalf of members; 2) to promote the efficient use of energy and the use of renewable energy; and 3) to support cooperative concepts and participate in the cooperative movement. As of 2016, the cooperative had nearly 6,000 members and $3.7 million in total revenues.
