Surprise co operatives buy power from public plants
The Logan county cooperative will purchase its power wholesale from Bellefontaine municipal plant, with Lorain Medina cooperative contracting with Ohio Public Service and Holmes county with Central Ohio Light & Power. Farm Bureau cooperatives set rates for 160 kWh month at 4.95 and 200 kWh at 7.95, with a 2.50 minimum charge giving 35 kWh. Rates compare favorably to commercial rural power and include no line-extension charges, financed via REA loan amortization over 29 or 25 years. REA also finances consumer wiring and appliance purchases over five years.
