Electric cooperatives serve the counties all over South Carolina, and we are owned by the people we serve. Therefore, we feel responsible for protecting and preserving the beauty and ecology of our state. To that end, Palmetto Electric Cooperative sponsors and supports several programs that are designed to protect and preserve our environment.
