Big Country Electric Cooperative is always looking for ways to support our members with reliable energy solutions and helpful resources. As part of that commitment, BCEC is partnering with Generator Supercenter, a Generac dealer network, to provide members with a trusted option for backup power systems if they choose to explore that for their home.
Members who purchase a generator through the partnership will be eligible for a $500 installation discount and a free upgraded warranty that covers parts, labor and service support. Generator Supercenter’s certified technicians handle the entire process—including evaluating power needs, appropriately sizing the generator, professional installation, startup and ongoing maintenance—helping ensure systems are connected safely and ready when needed.
The provider can also review existing generator installations to confirm that they are set up correctly and operating safely.
While BCEC works hard year-round to maintain a strong and reliable electric system, we understand some members choose to add backup generation for added peace of mind. Our goal is to serve as a trusted energy adviser by helping connect members with reputable, qualified providers and accurate information so they can make informed decisions.
For safety and system coordination, BCEC asks members to notify the cooperative if they install a backup generator. All generator installations also require a signed Backup Generator Use Policy on file with BCEC prior to installation or operation. This simple step helps ensure the generator is properly documented and protects both the homeowner and utility crews during outage restoration. It will not delay power restoration to your home.
Improperly installed generators can create dangerous backfeed onto power lines, which puts at risk utility crews and the public during outage restoration. Professional installation and proper transfer equipment help protect both the homeowner and the workers restoring service.
Additional information about this partnership, including full program details and participation steps, will be shared with members soon. As always, BCEC remains committed to providing safe, reliable service and supporting our members with trusted resources and information.
