Perdernales Electric Company celebrates 85th year
This year, Pedernales Electric Cooperative (PEC) is proudly joining its members and communities in celebrating its 85th anniversary and the electrification of the Texas Hill Country. Before PEC was founded, most Central Texans living in cities like Austin and San Antonio had electricity, but more than 90% of rural families did not. City homes were typically equipped with lights, appliances, and running water, while country life was still rather rustic, with gas lamps and wood burning stoves. 05/21/2023 12:00 AM
