Economic Development

Electric cooperative members in South Carolina enjoy some of the lowest rates and highest quality electric service to be found anywhere in the country - and MCEC is proud to be a part of that equation.

Commercial Services

Mid-Carolina is a member of the South Carolina Power Team, a unique electric power production, distribution and marketing alliance created expressly to provide service to the businesses of South Carolina.

The Power Team consists of Santee Cooper, a state-owned electric generating utility; Central Electric Power Cooperative, a generation and transmission cooperative; twenty distribution electric cooperatives; and Palmetto Economic Development Corporation, an economic development marketing organization.

With electric service in every county, the South Carolina Power Team has the largest transmission system and service area of any electric utility in the state and serves more than half its population. The generation capacity is predominantly coal augmented by partial ownership of a nuclear power plant.

In addition to these generation capacities, the Power Team is connected throughout South Carolina with CP&L, SCE&G, Duke and the Southeastern Power Administration. Santee Cooper is also a member of the Southeastern Electric Reliability Council, which includes all power suppliers in the region with a generating capacity of 25 megawatts or greater.
