Who are we?
Lorain-Medina Rural Electric Cooperative, Inc. is a member-owned, member-controlled nonprofit electric distribution utility located in North Central Ohio. LMRE is one of 24 electric Co-ops in Ohio.
Act Now to Help Prevent Increases in Our Electric Bills
Tell members of Congress they must step up to keep EPA from using the Clean Air Act (CAA) to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from power plants. Congress never intended for the EPA to use the Clean Air Act to regulate carbon dioxide.
Ask your elected officials to stop the EPA before it's too late.
We encourage people to let their voices be heard by accessing Our Energy, Our Future Web site and continuing a dialogue with our elected representatives in Washington.
Lorain-Medina Rural Electric Cooperative and the Touchstone Energy® Cooperatives, a nationwide alliance of electric cooperatives, rolled out a "revolutionary" national energy-efficiency campaign designed to inspire consumers to easily save energy and money.
Maintenance Updates
Updated November 18, 2009

The cooperative routinely does pole testing, tree-trimming and meter testing. Some of the maintenance is performed by LMRE crews and others are completed by contractors retained by the cooperative.The pole testing for 2009 has been completed.
The cooperative is currently NOT testing meters as it plans to announce in the coming months a full deployment of automatic meter reading equipment starting in 2010.
Asplundh Tree Expert Co. is currently trimming trees in Grafton, LaGrange, Litchfield, Liverpool, Penfield and York townships.
LMRE bucket trucks, derrick-digger and pick-up trucks are yellow. All cooperative vehicles have cooperative logos on their sides. Employees carry identification cards.
Contractors will have magnetic LMRE placards on their vehicles and carry a letter of introduction from the cooperative.
