NW Ohio Propane

Facebook NWOP Website

North Western Electric Cooperative is pleased to expand our services into a propane subsidiary company.

NW Ohio Propane (NWOP) offers propane services from a locally owned and operated company to our member-owners and the general public.

Check us out on Facebook or go to the NWOP website.


Are you an NWEC member-owner and have questions about this venture? We have some answers for you.

Why did NWEC start a propane company?

NWEC is always looking for opportunities to provide better service for our member-owners. For several years now we have been talking about an “all of the above” approach to energy. We currently have coal, natural gas and renewable sources in our energy portfolio so we started looking at other alternatives.

Where did the money come from to start the business?

NWEC had the building and the assets available and initially the co-op fund the business.

Who gets the profits if NWEC owns the business?

Profits go back into our electric cooperative to help us improve the reliability of your electric service.

Does owning the propane company increase my electric bill?

No and it may actually defer future rate increases for our electric member-owners. If NWEC can use the profits from the propane business to make improvements and expansions to our electric system then we may not need to increase electric rates.

Will I get a discount because I am an NWEC member-owner?

No, the propane rates will be based on a minimal margin just like your current electric rates.

Why not put all that money into renewable resources?

Renewable energy is too intermittent and too price sensitive to make massive investments in at this time.

Where does propane come from?

Approximately 90 percent of the United States’ propane supply is produced domestically. Propane is a byproduct of natural gas processing and crude oil refining.
