Who sets HILCO Electric Cooperative's rates
HILCO Electric Cooperative is a member-owned electric cooperative. A board elected by its members sets its rates. In some states the Public Utility Commission of Texas also reviews co-op rates, but most co-op rate changes do not go through a commission rate case, so watch the co-op's own member notices and board meetings.
Commission contact: Public Utility Commission of Texas. How we calculate every figure on this page: methodology.
