Tri-County EMC is committed to providing safe, reliable electric service, but even the most dependable electric system can be impacted by severe weather. Storms and other unexpected events can cause power outages across Middle Georgia, leaving homes without the electricity we rely on every day.
Today's households depend on electricity more than ever. From working and learning remotely to keeping refrigerators, medical equipment, and essential appliances running, extended outages can quickly become more than just an inconvenience. That's why many homeowners are investing in backup power solutions that provide added security and peace of mind.
Tri-County EMC has teamed up with Gresco Utility Supply, its materials supply cooperative, to make it easy for members to purchase and install a Generac Generator in their home at a competitive price. In addition, Tri-County EMC members can apply for a loan to pay for the generator through Go Energy Financial Credit Union. If you are interested in purchasing a generator, contact Gresco at 478.315.0817 to receive a free quote.
