Partners in Power

As a Touchstone Energy® Cooperative, East River is part of a nationwide alliance of more than 750 electric cooperatives in 46 states.

Touchstone Energy represents a nationwide alliance of member-owned electric co-ops that are dedicated to providing members with safe, reliable and affordable electricity. Connecting the people of America’s electric cooperatives to benefit members and their communities makes Touchstone Energy Cooperatives different from traditional power companies.

East River was a founding member of the Touchstone Energy Cooperatives brand when the program launched in 1998 and served as a test market for Touchstone brand.

The strongest communities share more than just affordable electricity; they share the same values. The four Touchstone Energy Cooperative values of integrity, accountability, innovation and commitment to community are our foundation. These values represent the cooperative difference and why our members trust us to provide reliable and affordable power and service every day.
