  • KEC’s primary focus is in helping its member-systems to maintain or, if possible, to improve their competitive positions as electric utilities.
  • KEC exists to accomplish through collective action those tasks which its member-systems cannot do as efficiently or effectively by themselves.
  • KEC will provide leadership, coordination, and support to its member-systems and also serve as a forum for the exchange of information and ideas among its members.
