About Us
Headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, Wabash Valley Power is a not-for-profit electric cooperative and wholesale provider of reliable, affordable electricity to our 23 electric distribution member cooperatives. These cooperatives in turn serve more than 300,000 homes, businesses, and farms in Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri.

As a not-for-profit co-op, we do things a bit differently—and that’s the point. Because we aren’t influenced by shareholders, we make our decisions with our members in mind. That means we value things like teamwork, and putting families first. It also means a business model that’s designed for stability and growth. It’s a Deliberately Different approach to the energy industry, and that’s great news for the people who count on us.

We believe what benefits our employees benefits our company. That’s why we put employees first—your health, your family, and your development.

Here are just a few of the things that make our company culture unique:

• Stay in School – we value employees who have a desire to learn, so we provide funds for continuing education.  We also offer in-house training and ongoing professional development opportunities.
