Singing River Electric

Richton, Mississippi, United States

General Info:

When Singing River Electric was organized on August 31, 1938, most of southeast Mississippi was harnessed to a mule, a water bucket and a coal-oil lamp. However, neighbors came together and made the choice to provide their own electricity through a cooperative form of business. Thanks to a group of local citizens who gathered at the George County Courthouse, an electric cooperative was formed. Named for the Pascagoula River, Singing River Electric Power Association began bringing light to rural people. Today, we continue the tradition of dedicated and responsive service. Singing River Electric Power Association is an electric distribution cooperative serving over 70,500 members in southeast Mississippi. We maintain nearly 7,000 miles of line in Jackson, George, Greene, Harrison, Perry, Stone and Wayne counties in Mississippi as well as Mobile and Washington counties in Alabama. Our headquarters is located in Lucedale, with branch offices in Gautier and Sand Hill. Our mission is to distribute electric energy and provide services that improve the quality of life of the members and communities we serve. Singing River Electric is a private, not-for-profit organization, locally owned and managed.
