Your trusted energy partner.
Owned by those it serves, Fall River Electric is a member-owned nonprofit cooperative that powers communities across parts of Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming — including Island Park. With over 21,000 connections spanning more than 2,500 square miles, Fall River is committed to delivering reliable, affordable, and locally managed energy services.
Reliable Power & Community Investment
From hydroelectric generation to modern grid infrastructure, Fall River Electric ensures low-cost and dependable electricity to homes and businesses. Their ongoing investment in smart-grid technology, transmission upgrades, and generation facilities helps keep power flowing even in remote mountain areas — with a strong emphasis on safety, efficiency, and environmental stewardship.
Member-Focused, Customer-Owned
As a cooperative, Fall River Electric is governed by an elected Board of Directors made up of fellow owner-members. That means each customer has a stake in how the cooperative is run — with decisions driven by community needs rather than distant shareholders.
Added Value for Members
Fall River regularly returns excess revenues to their owner-members through a patronage capital program. In recent years, payouts totaling millions of dollars have been distributed — a benefit unique to co-ops and a real financial return to those who trust Fall River to power their homes and businesses.
Serving Unique Communities in Yellowstone Country
Fall River’s service area includes small towns, rural ranches, seasonal resorts, and remote properties near forests, rivers, and national-park gateways. Because of that, they understand the importance of reliable power, local knowledge, and responsive service — especially when weather or terrain challenges come into play.
