NAVOPACHE ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE

Navopache Electric Cooperative (NEC) is a nonprofit, member-owned electric utility dedicated to providing safe, reliable, and cost-effective power across the White Mountains of eastern Arizona and western New Mexico. Established to serve the needs of rural communities, NEC operates thousands of miles of distribution lines and supports tens of thousands of members throughout its service territory, which spans multiple counties and includes vibrant communities such as Show Low, Pinetop-Lakeside, St. Johns, Springerville, and Eagar. As a cooperative, NEC is governed by a Board of Directors elected by its members and returns value to them through capital credits and member-centered programs rather than profits to investors.

​

Beyond delivering electricity, Navopache Electric Cooperative takes a proactive role in helping members manage energy use and costs. Through initiatives like personalized energy services, rebates, and educational resources, NEC fosters energy efficiency and sustainability in the communities it serves. With a strong commitment to community support and cooperative principles, NEC remains a trusted partner for residents and businesses alike, focused on enhancing quality of life across its service area.
