Our Mission

Wolverine is owned by our seven member cooperatives, and they are at the heart of everything we do. We exist so that our members will have reliable power at competitive prices that they can distribute to their member-consumers.

Why We Are Different

What sets us apart from other utilities is that we are a cooperative. That means that we are owned and run by our members, not stockholders. We’re not in it for the profits; our main focus is meeting the needs of our members.

Our History

Wolverine has been serving its members for over 60 years

Wolverine was formed January 1, 1983, resulting from a merger of Wolverine Electric Cooperative and Northern Michigan Electric Cooperative. Wolverine Electric, originally headquartered in Big Rapids, was formed to serve four electric distribution cooperatives in southwest Michigan in 1948. Northern Michigan Electric, headquartered in Boyne City, was also formed in 1948 to provide service to three electric distribution cooperatives in northern Michigan.

Together, we became Wolverine Power Cooperative and continue the legacy of providing reliable and affordable electricity to our seven member co-ops throughout rural Michigan.
