What drives us

Our Mission and Values

Tipmont’s mission statement defines its’ purpose and values. For an electric cooperative, it’s especially important because the cooperative exists to serve its members and communities, not shareholders.

A clear mission helps ensure every decision supports reliable service, long-term value, and the needs of the membership.

Why we exist

Our Mission

In recent years, we’ve seen rapid innovation across many industries, including energy. As alternatives to coal and natural gas evolve, battery technology improves, and regulations continue to change, the energy sector is entering a period of major transformation.

At Tipmont, our mission goes beyond delivering electric service. We believe in giving our members choices in the services they use every day. That’s why we launched Indiana’s first community solar array and built a state-of-the-art fiber-optic internet network.

Adopted in late 2014, our mission statement is:

EMPOWER OUR COMMUNITIES BY PROVIDING STATE-OF-THE-ART ESSENTIAL SERVICES.

digging in deeper

What our mission statement means

  • Empower
Empower means to provide our members with the tools to succeed. Our services should enable our members and our communities to pursue their goals, to tee them up for success.
  • Our Communities
The word community conveys Tipmont’s leadership role beyond just our members. Tipmont can make meaningful, and positive change through economic development efforts, education and outreach.
  • With State-of-The-Art
Providing state-of-art services means we’re committed to the technologies, skill sets and leadership that our members and our communities desire.
  • Essential Services
Our services aim to support the big three quality of life desires – security, comfort and convenience. We also label Tipmont’s services as “essential” to ensure we stay focused on those services that provide the best value to our members while also staying consistent with our areas of expertise.
