Mutual Aid

ECG is an advocate of Hometown Power.

Fifty-one communities in Georgia alone provide power through a community-owned utility. This allows a city's assets to remain city-controlled and to the local community's benefit.

ECG provides services to community-owned utilities as an advocate of Public Power. But we don't stop there. One of the services we offer is to the benefit of not only the communities we service in Georgia, but to any community that provides public power.

For example, when Hurricane Irene hit the east coast, ECG Participants rushed to help other communities to get the lights back on as quickly as possible. This partnership is made possible through Mutual Aid Agreements and in Georgia, is facilitated by ECG's Training & Safety Superintendent, Jon Beasley.

The linemen from ECG communities go out in the snow and rain in the middle of the night and all through the day to get the lights back on as soon as possible after a storm. 

This is just one of many services we provide that adds value to our partnership with the 51 Georgia communities and the entire network of public power communities in the U.S.
