1.2 million co-op members find Texas Co-op Power in their homes, making it the largest-circulation publication in Texas.Texas Co-op Power is filled with all of the stories and features you care about—stories about Texans, food, travel, history, destinations and important issues, all in a package designed to help make our vast state feel more like one big community.
All members of Nueces Electric Cooperative (NEC) receive a complimentary copy of the Texas Co-op Power magazine. NEC employees and trustees often receive questions from members about why they receive the Texas Co-op Power magazine. The answer is––the magazine is a benefit to both the cooperative and the entire membership.
The word “membership” helps supply part of the answer. As a member of NEC, you are entitled to certain privileges – those not available to paying customers of investor-owned utilities.
As a member and owner of NEC–not just a paying customer–you are entitled to know how your business operates. NEC considers it an obligation to share information on a timely and regular basis. The best way to do this is through the Texas Co-op Power magazine. NEC’s newsletter, is located in the middle part of the magazine, and can be distinguished by the colored border. This newsletter is written and created by employees in your local office and is designed to keep you updated on the latest news of the local cooperative, such as annual meeting information, area meetings, youth tour information, outage and construction activities, people who work for you, safety tips, ways to use electricity wisely and announcements, and more.
The main pages of the magazine contain news and interesting features from around Texas. One of the highlights for many of our members are the delicious recipes that included in every issue.
NEC is one of many electric cooperatives in Texas providing this magazine to their members, each cooperative with its own customized newsletter inserted into the magazine. By combining forces with these other electric cooperatives, the cost to produce the inserts and the magazines becomes quite reasonable. In fact, the cost per member is about 65 cents. This includes printing and mailing the magazine to more than 33,000 members just for NEC. You can view the past issues of the newsletter in the menu on the right!
We’re your cooperative, and we’re always working to keep you informed about our operations, community initiatives, electrical safety, energy conservation, and more.
