Jo-Carroll Energy is a local, community-focused cooperative, founded to bring energy to our area. Any excess revenue - or margins - remaining after all expenses have been paid are returned to members through what we call “capital credits”.

Capital credits represent members' ownership in the cooperative. It is one of our founding principles: Members Economic Participation. Jo-Carroll Energy utilizes a hybrid method of retiring capital credits. The co-op retires capital credits on a delayed schedule of about 25 years plus 5 percent of all remaining credits earned at a discounted rate.

How Capital Credits Work

Unclaimed Capital Credits

Jo-Carroll Energy mails capital credit checks in December, and, over the years, several have been returned as undeliverable. We are unable to contact these former members without a valid address on file.

You can help us locate these members so we can return their capital credits by taking a few minutes to scan the lists of members who have unclaimed capital credits. You may view the list sorted by name or by town.
