EnergyUnited, like all electric co-ops, is owned by the customers it serves. As a result, the power provider is seeking members who will act as sounding boards for changes in service processes and development of new programs. This will allow MAC members to provide feedback to EnergyUnited about the needs and concerns of the cooperative's membership. This ongoing interaction will help to further enhance communications between the members and EnergyUnited officials. Those who serve will learn more about the cooperative and be encouraged to share that information with fellow members.

Each MAC consists of up to 12 volunteers from EnergyUnited's 19-county service area who represent the diverse membership of the cooperative. Locally, quarterly meetings are held in Cornelius.

As a standard, MAC members will serve three-year terms on a rotating basis. The length of each member's term will be decided during their first meeting. To encourage member participation and ensure that a true cross-section of the membership is represented, members will rotate off the committee for at least three years before being considered for another term.
