Kansas electric cooperatives

The government relations department is responsible for building and maintaining key relationships with members of the Kansas congressional delegation, state legislators, the governor, cabinet members and staffers, as well as associated farm and agricultural organizations. These activities support strong working relationships with the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA), and other state and national organizations to maintain a strong representation in the State of Kansas.

KEC is the Kansas statewide service organization for 26 electric distribution cooperatives and three generation and transmission cooperatives. Formed on August 18, 1941, and headquartered in Topeka, KEC represents the interests and provides needed services and programs to the electric co-ops that serve Kansans.
