The idea of electricity was slow to arrive to the nation's rural areas, but when it did, it transformed rural society forever. Clark Energy Cooperative's own history began when farmers from all across the country and their neighbors joined together to form an electric cooperative to make certain they would not be deprived of the conveniences of electricity. For over 80 years, Clark Energy has provided light, heat and many more comforts with just the flip of a switch to thousands of homes and small business in east central Kentucky.
