MVU is proud to provide safe and reliable electricity to its customers. As a
                                           municipally operated utility, MVU takes great pride in being a member of the
                                           public power community model that is based on local control, a not-for-profit
                                           motive, and a focus on giving back to the community we serve. Here are some
                                           of the ways MVU serves the community.

                                           MVU sponsors community events and provides information to all residents,
                                           not just MVU customers.  One of our primary responsibilities is to provide
                                           incentives for business to locate within MVU service territory and  employ
                                           MoVal residents.

                                           In an ongoing effort to promote a greener environment, MVU buys energy
                                           generated from renewable sources like solar, water, and wind. MVU installed
          GIVE BACK
                                           a solar carport at City Hall and has plans to install an additional solar carport
                                           at the City Annex.

                                           Our electric utility does not partner with any shareholders, so resources are
                                           reinvested directly into the community. MVU is part of your local government;
                                           Utility business is presented at City Council meetings where residents are
                      PUBLIC POWER UTILITIES
                                           free to participate. Resident volunteers also serve as Commission members
                                           overseeing electric utility policy-making decisions and concerns.

                                           The reinvestment takes the form of upgrades to infrastructure, programs
                                           designed specifically for the needs of our customers, and friendly, in-
                                           person service.
