Approximately 237,000 current and former members of Jackson EMC (JEMC) will receive their share of a total of $16 million in member refund checks this month.
After this refund, Jackson EMC will have refunded $236 million in member refunds to its member-owners since the cooperative was founded in 1938.
Members are refunded for a combination of years, so former, long-term and newer members benefit from belonging to an electric cooperative, like Jackson EMC. This year, member refunds will go to those who received electric service from Jackson EMC in 1999, 2000, 2001 and/or 2024. Each member’s refund depends on how much they paid for electricity during those specific years. Checks are being mailed in December.
