Kit Carson Electric Cooperative Inc. is a rural electric utility based in Taos, New Mexico, founded in 1934. It serves nearly 30,000 members and operates under a board of trustees with direction from its CEO, focusing on delivering electric service while pursuing diversification through its Propane division (Kit Carson Energy) and a broadband and telecommunications division (Kit Carson Technologies).
