Public Power
Municipal electric utilities like NAED were founded on the principal that
electricity is an essential public service that is best provided by a
utility owned and operated by the people it serves. This is the definition
of public power and NAED is one of thousands of municipal utilities that
collectively make up the public power system in this country. With public
power, not only are the residents part owners of their local electric
utility, the commissioners who govern policy for the utility are from the
community as well. In a public power community, the electric utility is
non-profit and tax-exempt, meaning that every dollar paid for electricity
goes toward high quality, reliable and economical electric service that
meets the diverse needs of the community and the rate payers.
History
NAED is a publicly owned and operated electric utility providing electric
energy distribution, energy conservation and electric education programs,
and Internet service to residents and businesses in North Attleborough.
NAED began operation on February 22, 1894, with its steam-driven dynamos
lighting 565 streetlights with 32 candlepower each and about 800 commercial
lights. For more than a century since then, NAED has led the way to meet the
growing demand for continuous, reliable, high quality electric services at
competitive prices.
As the hometown electric utility, NAED is an active corporate citizen whose
31 employees deliver another kind of energy, the energy that helps support
activities for the betterment of the community. Thank you for joining us as
we explore today's possibilities, meet the challenges of public service and
