New Meter Update

Lane Electric Cooperative has invested in new automated meters to improve the reliability and efficiency of its electric distribution system. In 2025, the co-op expects to upgrade 5,203 member meters, or about 40% of its system. The rest will be completed in 2026.

The areas to be completed in 2025 include:

• Eugene
• Veneta
• Cottage Grove
• Creswell
• Springfield
• Pleasant Hill
• Elmira
• Lorane
• Noti
• Dexter
• Fall Creek
• Jasper
• Lowell

Members are notified via mail a month before installation to ensure proper access to Lane Electric equipment.

To complete this project, the cooperative has partnered with Allegiant Utility Services, which specializes in providing rural utilities with meter installation. Here’s how to identify our crews:

• Allegiant will be in marked vehicles. Upon arrival, an Allegiant employee will knock on your door to inform you they are on-site. The installation will have a brief service interruption, taking only a few minutes.
• All work will be completed outside, so you do not need to be home.
• If you have locked or electric gates, dogs, or other animals that need to be considered, let us know so we can make the proper arrangements.
