GENERATION AND DISTRIBUTION
Eau Claire Energy Cooperative is a distribution cooperative, meaning that the Cooperative purchased power from a wholesale provider, Dairyland Power Cooperative, and distributes it to its members. Dairyland Power Cooperative generates power in a variety of ways and transmits it to ECEC and its membership. Dairyland Power Cooperative generates electricity by using both traditional and renewable energy resources to provide safe, reliable and affordable electricity. Dairyland owns and operates several power plants utilizing a progressive 'all of the above' strategy: hydroelectric, natural gas, coal, landfill gas, wind, and solar generation.
