The Electric Cooperative Scholarship was established by the Group V Texas Electric Cooperatives in 1986. These scholarships are available to entering freshmen who are graduates of a high school in an area served by one of the Group V Cooperatives (mostly Panhandle, South Plains and part of the Rolling Plains). Preference will be given to students with a financial need.

Texas Electric Cooperatives (TEC) represent the interests of 75 electric cooperatives with more than 3 million members throughout the state. TEC serves its members by providing products and services that help sustain cooperative businesses in the 21st century.

The association advocates for cooperatives in the Texas Legislature, the U.S. Congress and state and federal regulatory agencies. TEC also offers a full line of utility supplies and services, including utility poles, through its Manufacturing & Distribution Services facility headquartered in Georgetown. TEC provides professional education opportunities for cooperative employees and safety training for electric linemen throughout the state. The association also publishes Texas Co-op Power, a monthly magazine reaching 1.54 million electric cooperative members in 61 Texas cooperatives. With headquarters in Austin, TEC employs nearly 200 dedicated men and women in offices across Texas.
