CoServ crews are scheduled to be there for about two weeks helping to restore power to PRECO members. The National Rural Electric Cooperative estimates 49,000 of PRECO’s 55,000 members are without power in the wake of the hurricane.
Inspecting CoServ’s more than 2,800 miles of overhead line is a full-time job. In 2021, CoServ’s drone program identified more than 400 issues that were repaired proactively before they could cause a power outage.

Clyde, 78, proudly represented CoServ Members on the Board of Directors for 22 years, which also happened to be some of the most transformative in the 85-year history of co-op.
Competitions included racing up a pole with an egg, conducting a hurt man rescue with a 200-pound mannequin and two mystery events where teams of three raced against the clock to change out equipment. CoServ competed against utilities from all over Texas and we are proud of their efforts and for showing the state what CoServ is all about.
As CoServ celebrates its 85th anniversary, we’re proud to add a new Member that’s also a longtime Texas institution – H-E-B!

CoServ Members are having sticker shock when they open their electric bills and for good reason – the summer heat was one for the books and the cost per kilowatt-hour peaked at some of the highest prices it’s ever been thanks to the steep increase in wholesale power costs.
Last year, CoServ Members installed 1,639 solar systems on their homes, up 130 percent from 2020. The total capacity installed totaled 14,983.31 kilowatts, also up 133 percent from the prior year.
