The rebuilt transmission line will be supported by steel poles. Final design will determine height, but the structures will typically range from 70 to 100 feet above ground. The work will primarily take place within existing easements, but supplemental or new easement rights may be needed in some areas.
Founded in 1949, Hoosier Energy is a generation and transmission cooperative (G&T) with headquarters in Bloomington, Indiana.
The G&T provides electric power and services to 18 member distribution cooperatives in central and southern Indiana and southeastern Illinois. We are a community-focused organization that works to efficiently deliver affordable, reliable and safe energy.
South Central Indiana (SCI) REMC is one of 18 electric cooperatives that own, govern, and purchase wholesale power from Hoosier Energy. SCI REMC was established in 1939 and is the largest rural electric cooperative in Indiana. Electric cooperatives were organized by people living in rural areas who banded together to supply electricity to their own homes, where investor-owned utilities refused to go (and still do). SCI REMC is owned and operated by the 29,000 members it serves across seven counties.
