The City of Collinsville with Collinsville Energy is celebrating Public Power Week, Oct. 3-9, along with more than 2,000 other community-powered, not-for-profit electric utilities that collectively provide electricity to 49 million Americans.

“This year, we especially celebrate the employees of the City and Collinsville Energy, the people behind public power,” said City of Collinsville, Assistant City Manager of Operations Craig Stokes. “These folks work tirelessly to keep our community up and running 24 hours a day seven days a week,” Stokes said. “Our dedicated staff members work in many departments including human resources, administration, accounting and finance, public relations, field supervision, and engineering and operations; and they all pull together with a common goal:   keeping  the City of Collinsville powered.”

“The people behind public power take pride in serving our friends and neighbors with our most essential needs,” said Craig Stokes. 

Collinsville Energy takes great pride in serving all of our 2,750 residential customers and 318 commercial and industrial customers for the past 75 years.  We look forward to many years of continued service.
