MUNICIPALLY OWNED ELECTRIC UTILITIES (MOUs) Hometown, Service, Stability, Success
72 cities and towns in Texas light up their homes, businesses, and streets with "public power" from their local municipally owned electric utility (MOU). Each public power utility is different, reflecting its hometown characteristics and values. But, all have a common purpose: providing reliable and safe electricity at a reasonable price while supporting their local community. Service is the primary objective. Stability comes from up to a century in business and a diverse mix of energy sources that doesn't "put all the eggs in one basket". Success is reflected in creditworthy bond ratings, local jobs and economic development, efficient performance, and high customer satisfaction.
4. 1Million Texans Served by Public Power
Citizens and ratepayers have a direct and powerful voice in utility decisions and policies, respectively via the ballot box and a robust public process.
