Central Georgia EMC is proud to follow the seven cooperative principles. The cooperative principles guide our actions and ensure our members are at the heart of everything we do. A strong and vibrant community is essential for the success of our members, and we are committed to doing our part to ensure our members' energy and community needs are met.

Democratic member control is an important principle that sets us apart. As a member of Central Georgia EMC, you have a voice in how the cooperative is run. We hold our Annual Meeting on the first Wednesday in August, where members can voice their opinions, ask questions, and elect representatives to serve on the board of directors. This ensures that decisions are made in our members' best interest and reflects our community's needs and perspectives.

Members' economic participation is also an essential aspect of our cooperative. When you become a member of Central Georgia EMC, you benefit from our reliable and affordable energy services and the opportunity to receive capital credits. Capital credits represent your share of the cooperative's excess margins and are returned to you in the form of a check. This allows you to directly benefit from the success of the cooperative and reinvest in your own energy needs.

At Central Georgia EMC, we truly love our members. We are committed to providing affordable, reliable, and sustainable energy and continually strive to exceed those expectations. We are proud to be a community-focused organization owned and governed by our members. Together, we can create a brighter future.
