STRONG PRINCIPLES RUN THROUGH EVERY CO-OP LINE

Poudre Valley REA members share more than electricity. They share the same principles. That’s because your electric co-op is located in the communities we power and work hard to improve quality of life for all.

To Sign Up for Service

Welcome to PVREA! You're signing up for a membership with the co-op when you start service with us. To get started, choose your account option to set up your account. Visit our New Construction page for any new construction services for residential and commercial.

A social security number is required to complete this online application. If you choose not to provide your SSN or do not have one, please visit our office to apply in person. All applicants applying in person are required to provide a government issued photo ID. 

Once submitted, this application will be transmitted to a Member Service Representative for review. You will be contacted by phone or by email to complete the application process and to notify you of any deposits or fees associated with starting service.
