Since 1938, United Cooperative Services has provided reliable, affordable power to the rural homes and businesses of North Texas. Headquartered in Burleson, Texas, United is an electric and internet distribution cooperative serving more than 100,000 meters and more than 70,000 members. United plays a key role in the economic development of its communities and unlike a private utility, the cooperative is a not-for-profit business owned by the consumers it serves. Formed for a consolidation of Johnson County Electric Cooperative and Erath County Electric Cooperative in April 2000, United has combined greater buying power with a more efficient, economic operation. As a member of Touchstone Energy® Cooperatives, a branding initiative and national alliance of local, consumer-owned electric cooperatives, United plays a key role in the economic development of its communities.
