Pierce-Pepin Electric Cooperative is Formed
On February 18, 1937, the Pierce-Pepin Electric Cooperative was formed.  With a loan through the Rural Electrification Act (REA) for about $330,000, construction began in September 1937 for 318 miles of line that would serve 932 farms. The original lines were designed as two major sections, the southern and northern routes. On June 13, 1938, the southern section was energized and the northern section was energized on July 4, 1938.

Pierce Pepin Diversifies -
Changes Name to Pierce Pepin Cooperative Services
As Pierce Pepin has grown, so has our commitment to our members and surrounding communities.  As our members' needs changed, we diversified and expanded our product/service offerings to complement and enhance our electric business.  Since we  

were no longer just an electric cooperative, with approval by the membership in March 1999, our name was changed to Pierce Pepin Cooperative Services.  The change was officially implemented in September 1999.
