North Arkansas Electric Cooperative follows seven cooperative principles. The third of which is “Members’ Economic Participation”, which is exemplified through the assignment of patronage capital. Each year the cooperative makes a decision on the retirement of patronage based on the financial condition of the cooperative and the amount of assigned capital from the year in question.
This December’s disbursement of capital credit checks will make the twenty second consecutive year that North Arkansas Electric Cooperative will refund capital credits to its members. With this year’s total refund at approximately $674,867, North Arkansas Electric will have refunded $20,778,318 since inception. read more
