The Strength of AEIC - Its
Active, Working Technical Committees.
Through a
committee structure, the Association addresses
technological problems associated with planning, building
and operating an electric utility system.
The small size of AEIC Committees provides maximum
participation of members to network, share practices and
experiences, and build relationships.
The AEIC's six
committees are staffed with experts from management of
member companies and meet regularly during the year to
explore issues in their particular areas. The AEIC
committees include:
- The Power
Generation Committee
- The Load
Research Committee
- The Electric
Power Apparatus Committee
- The Power
Delivery Committee
- The Meter
and Service Committee
- The Cable
Engineering Committee

AEIC opens up significant avenues to explore both the
business and technical elements associated with prudent
utility management. This, coupled with relationship
building opportunities afforded by committee meetings and
the Annual Meeting, can be of significant benefit to
member companies.
Participation does not simply occur at committee meetings
or the Annual Meeting, as members seek numerous
opportunities throughout the year to exchange
information, ideas and solutions.
Among industry associations, the cost of membership and
participation in AEIC activities is extremely moderate.
AEIC dues are based on annual electric revenues. If you
