With roots dating to the 1940s, Hoosier Energy has been powering regions of Indiana and Illinois for over 70 years
Though the Hoosier Energy of today doesn’t closely resemble its early self, our mission has remained the same: providing affordable, reliable power to rural and underserved regions of Indiana and Illinois. Throughout Hoosier Energy’s history, our footprint has expanded to reach hundreds of thousands of homes, farms and businesses. Today, we serve 17 member electric cooperatives, delivering power through a 1,700-mile transmission network.
Hoosier Energy Today
Through the decades, Hoosier Energy has matured and grown into an efficient generation and transmission cooperative that now serves more than 700,000 consumers through 17 member electric cooperatives across a 15,000-square-mile area in Indiana and Illinois. We draw power from a diverse range of resources and have made significant strides over the last decade to increase renewable energy production and distribution. Our commitment to renewable energy has been bolstered by a voluntary board policy to increase the renewable portion of our production.
Today we operate with the same vision and clarity that have ...served our cooperative since 1949. The principles that guided our leaders more than 70 years ago remain the same, and we’re committed to delivering value for our members in the decades to come.
