Capital Electric Cooperative is committed to providing safe, reliable and efficient electric power at a reasonable cost to all member owners.
With headquarters in Bismarck, N.D., and a service center in Wing, Capital Electric Cooperative has provided electricity to our consumer-members in Burleigh and southern Sheridan counties since 1948. We also serve portions of Emmons, Kidder and McLean. We take pride in being progressive yet friendly, service-oriented yet energy conscious.
As a cooperative, we are owned and governed by the members we serve. Our directors on the board are elected by the membership, so they have a vested interest in the operation of the cooperative. Learn more about how Capital Electric proudly returns its margins back to the members it serves in the form of Capital Credits.
