Tuesday, October 6, 2026 / Oxford News, Events ⚡️ It's Public Power Week! ⚡️ October 4th-10th, we’re celebrating the benefits of having a publicly owned electric utility and what that means for our community. As a community-owned utility, our focus is right here at home — keeping the lights on and providing reliable, affordable electricity to our neighbors and local businesses. So, why does public power matter? 🏡 Local Control – Decisions are made right here in our community, with our residents and local needs in mind. 💰 Keeping It Local – Revenue stays in the community and helps support improvements right here at home. 🔌 Reliable Service – Public power utilities provide reliable service and, on average, experience fewer and shorter outages than investor-owned utilities. 🤝 Neighbors Helping Neighbors – When storms roll through or another community needs a hand, our KPP Energy family steps up. Cities like Lucas, Ellinwood, and Clay Center have been there to lend a hand when it’s needed — and that’s what being part of a community is all about.
