Bluebonnet Electric Cooperative
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bluebonnet Electric Cooperative, Inc. is a non-profit rural electric utility cooperative headquartered in Bastrop, Texas, with suboffices in Giddings, Brenham, Lockhart, and Manor.
The Cooperative was organized in 1939 as the Lower Colorado River Electric Cooperative. In order to avoid confusion with the Lower Colorado River Authority, the organization changed its name in 1964. In 2007 as a part of a Cooperative wide restructuring plan, BEC's headquarters were moved from Giddings to a location near Bastrop, near the site of LCRA's Sim Gideon Power Plant. Additionally the two service centers in Bastrop and Lockhart were merged into one larger service center which relocated to a more central location in Red Rock, Texas.
The Cooperative serves portions of 14 counties in the state of Texas, in a territory generally east of Austin.
