"In operation for over 60 years,
‘STEC is a Generation and Transmission
Cooperative serving 8 member cooperatives of South Texas"
South Texas Electric Cooperative was formed in 1944 to provide wholesale electric
power to member cooperatives. Presently the South Texas Electric Cooperative serves
eight distribution cooperatives; Karnes, Wharton County, Victoria, Jackson, San
Patricio, Nueces, Magic Valley and Medina electric cooperatives. These cooperatives
provide service to over 170,000 members in 65 South Texas counties.
This year’s annual report cover features a night photograph of the Pearsall Energy Center. I feel that this picture
typifies the continuous commitment provided by South Texas Electric Cooperative to the member distribution
cooperatives and ultimately the consumer/members. As the A New Day annual report represented my excitement
about the future of STEC, the cover of this year’s annual report signifies the nightfall of my new day at STEC. While our
consumer/members focus on the demands of family, community and work, STEC personnel will continue monitoring
the transmission and generation resources of the cooperative. After all it is the teamwork of the STEC employees that
have placed this cooperative in elite class.
