Today, MVEA is proud to provide safe, reliable, and affordable electricity to more than 58,500 members and over 68,500 meters in portions of eight counties.
Our electric cooperative is financially strong and experiences tremendous growth of over 2,000 accounts per year due to the expanding communities outside of Colorado Springs. MVEA has annual revenues of over $125 million and over 6,500 miles of distribution line. We are a respected leader in the distribution cooperative industry due to a long history of safety, reliable service, member engagement, financial health, rate stability, and employee dedication.
