Elizabethton Electric System (EES) was founded in 1945 as a publicly owned power distributor. EES buys electricity generated by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), then distributes it for sale to its customers. EES provides electric power to over 25,000 customers in a distribution area covering over 150 square miles in Northeast Tennessee. This area includes portions of Carter, Sullivan, Unicoi, and Washington Counties; and the cities of Elizabethton, Watauga, and a small section of Johnson City. EES owns and maintains one Primary and eight Distribution substations and nearly 790 miles of line. EES purchased over 540 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity from TVA in 2005, at a cost of over 28 million dollars. In fiscal 2005, EES paid over 892 thousand dollars in tax equivalents to its constituent counties and cities.
