Our story began in 1938 with our pioneering leaders coming together to serve electricity to their local farms and neighbors. Over the years, GVEC's offerings have grown more diverse along with our South Central Texas audience. Although we continue to serve electricity, we are not just an electric utility. Our products and services go beyond the meter to do more for our customers and communities. Our electric service area spans 3,500 square miles over 13 South Central Texas counties. Over the years, we have expanded our high-speed Internet, HVAC services, solar sales and service, and electrician services to serve members as well as the public residing in the surrounding areas of our electric service territory.

Have you put off making electrical upgrades or repairs because you don't know who you should call? Over the years, GVEC has been asked to provide electrician services-and now we do! Our licensed electricians at GVEC Home are GVEC employees who understand the importance of making sure any electrical work they do is properly done. We're 80-year experts at serving reliable and affordable electricity to homes and businesses, and now can be your local resource for electrical repair and upgrade needs.

What do you look for when choosing a company to install and service your AC/Heating system? When you call GVEC Home, you know who we are and that we're here to stay. With more than 50 years of AC experience, we give you the edge when it comes to comfort, efficiency, longevity and installation. We not only offer you expertise in energy efficiency, but also the latest in advanced HVAC technology. Our systems are designed for high efficiency, quieter operation, improved home comfort and better air quality.

With more than 300 days of sun in our area of Texas, using solar technology to power homes makes financial sense. We call it Solar Simplicity, which means we make it easy, from start to finish, to purchase a solar photovoltaic system (solar panels) to produce your own electricity. Our solar experts will help you with everything from selecting the best location for your system to installation and interconnection to the GVEC electric system. Members also have the option of selling back excess energy their solar system may produce.

Our power went out and we called GVEC automated number a little after midnight, within a short time we received a text that they were aware and a crew was being dispatched and power would be restored and even gave us an estimated time of 2:40 am. our power came on by 1:18. Thank you GVEC for such prompt attention!

Our power went off and shortly after we received a text advising us a crew had been dispatched and a restoration time was given. Power was restored after an hour and one hour before the estimated time. And it was restored before our house got hot. Whoohoo. I would have given them a 5 star if power had not gone off.

Very impressed with all the services this cooperative offers!
