MEMBER COMMUNICATION

Wharton County Electric Cooperative strives to keep our members and the community as informed as possible regarding cooperative business, energy efficiency, electrical safety and updates during outages and emergencies. We use a variety of communication channels to provide this information to you.

TEXAS CO-OP POWER

Texas Co-op Power is a monthly magazine produced jointly by WCEC and Texas Electric Cooperatives, our statewide electric cooperative. Each member receives a free subscription to the magazine. It is mailed out at the beginning of each month. Texas Co-op Power offers features on the people, cities, communities, and events of Texas each month. The magazine also features recipes, contests, giveaways, and an events calendar.

Inside every issue of Texas Co-op Power, WCEC also produces local content specifically for our members. This is the best and most detailed way to keep informed about WCEC.
