What do current Chamber Co-Op participants have to say?

"In 2007, at about the time the second tier of the electric coop began, Lake Land experienced a 105% increase in electrical rates for the Kluthe Center in Effingham. Becoming a member of the coop has helped reduce this tremendous burden on our utility budget. We have been satisfied with the efforts by the Chamber to keep us informed of opportunities that offset some of the additional cost we have incurred. We are excited to continue our savings in the electric coop sponsored by the Chamber."

– Ray Rieck, VP Business Services, Lake Land College

"This program has made my life easier and has saved my business money!"

– Kathy Thomas, Owner, The Thomas Shop

"Our transition to buying electricity through the Chamber Energy Coop has been completely seamless and we are saving between $150 and $200 per month. For a small company, that's a tremendous savings. This program is one of many reasons to belong to the Greater Effingham Chamber of Commerce & Industry."

– Rob Bradshaw, Sales & Operations Manager, Support Products

"Since having joined the Effingham Chamber's Electricity Program, we have realized substantial savings of 20% compared to our previous electricity supplier. I have and will continue to recommend this program to any Chamber member."
