The HOEC business office will be closed on Friday, July 3, 2020, in observance of Independence Day. As always, dispatchers will remain on duty to serve members in the event of a power outage.

From planting shrubs to building a fence, many outdoor projects require digging. Before the shoveling begins, make sure to call 811 before you dig. It could prevent serious injury or even save your life.

Energy efficiency is something we can all do to help control our electricity costs. In 2008, Associated Electric Cooperative, Inc., launched the Take Control & Save initiative to build on distribution cooperatives’ longtime energy efficiency efforts.

We are committed to the members we serve. From the start of this crisis, our focus has been on keeping the power flowing for all members. That is why we have made a special effort to work with those whose finances have been affected by this pandemic.

To help prevent the spread of COVID-19, HOEC's lobby remains closed until further notice; however, the drive thru window is open. For those needing a meter reconnected or disconnected or needing to apply for electrical service, please call the office at 417-256-2131 and arrangements will be made.
