Just over 81 years ago, Kosciusko REMC was formed to provide safe, affordable and reliable electricity to community members overlooked by other providers.
Tuesday, the cooperative has announced they will be answering yet another call for essential services, according to a news release from KREMC.
The initiative is already underway, and full implementation will be sooner than initially projected, according to the release. KREMC says they are anticipating a two-year project. The process begins with building a fiber infrastructure that will assist the cooperative to work more rapidly and cost-effectively to expand internet services.
This plan allows KREMC to build a world-class smart grid in the region, at the lowest possible cost, while not impacting KREMC members’ electric rates, which are the lowest in the state, the release states.
