Economic Development

Albemarle EMC strives to be a leader in the strategic economic development of our area. The reason is simple: When our community grows, our cooperative grows. When our cooperative grows, we can expand the electric system to provide even more reliable electric service at a more economical price for our membership.

As a leader in economic development in our area, we are proud of our involvement with other community organizations who also seek the same goal of prosperity for our area. Examples of these associations include:

Edenton Chamber of Commerce
Elizabeth City Chamber of Commerce
Perquimans Chamber of Commerce
Committee of 1000 for the Northeast Partnership

Our economic development program has provided low-interest loans of almost $1,000,000 for commercial and industrial development. If your organization is interested in locating in northeastern North Carolina, please feel free to contact us or one of the many organizations above. We hope you will find our area to be a key to your success.
