Empowering the lives of those we serve.
For nearly nine decades, Poudre Valley REA has been more than your electric provider. We’ve been the co-op you can count on and your trusted partner in powering the potential of Northern Colorado.
We’re here when you need us, but there for you always!
We provide the lowest electric rates in Colorado, ensuring affordability without compromising reliability or service.
Our long-standing commitment to predictable, low-cost power helps anchor homes, farms, and businesses.
PVREA ranks among the nation’s top-tier for delivering dependable power 24/7/365.
Our legacy of reliability is proven in the past, trusted in the present, and ready for our future.
Our services branch out to meet your needs, offering shade, shelter, and support.
From safety resources to billing options and energy guidance, we provide solutions that adapt as member priorities evolve.
Firmly rooted in Northern Colorado, our cooperative draws strength from the communities we serve.
Local people and local priorities guide everything we do. Because we’re neighbors serving neighbors.
As a cooperative, we believe progress happens together. We’re committed to being an active, engaged partner with the communities we call home.
Strong partnerships with local organizations, first responders, businesses, and schools help us make a positive impact.
Our roots run deep, but our vision reaches forward.
For over 87 years, we’ve been the co-op you can count on. Now, we’re charting the next chapter, one that remains grounded in serving our member-owners.
We are committed to providing safe, reliable, efficient energy solutions with exceptional service to our members.
We serve more than 58,000 homes and businesses across 2,000 square miles of service territory in Larimer, Weld, and Boulder counties with over 4,000 miles of overhead, underground, and transmission line.
We are your local member-owned, not-for-profit cooperative, your trusted source of information, and a community partner you can depend on. We are led by those we serve.
As your local co-op, we operate differently than other types of utilities. We’re deeply rooted in the communities we serve – built by and for our members. To us, you are more than a customer – you’re a member!
Your membership in our cooperative provides you many unique benefits – like electric rates built for your lifestyle, rewards programs, access to our energy experts and more. We value you and your feedback, so come engage with us at our many community events throughout the year including at our Annual Meeting.
We also add value to your life in surprising ways. We return margins back to you as member credits instead of returning profits to foreign investors. You can access our many electric product rebates. And we routinely financially support non-profits, award scholarships, and provide grant funding for teachers.
Membership in our cooperative is open to all persons who can reasonably use our service and stand willing to accept the responsibilities of membership, regardless of race, religion, gender, or economic circumstances.
Start Service
Cooperatives are democratic organizations controlled by their members, who actively participate in setting policies, making decisions, and electing representatives.
Meet Your Representatives Voting at the Annual Meeting
Members contribute equitably to, and democratically control, the capital of their cooperative. At least part of our capital remains under the common property of the cooperative. We return profits back to you as member credits.
Member Credits
Cooperatives are autonomous, self-help organizations owned by their members. We govern ourselves, for the betterment of our members, so that local priorities are reflected in how we do business.
