Jackson Energy Authority is a public utility created under a private act passed by the Tennessee Legislature. Our assets and operations are paid for through utility rates, not tax money. A five-member Board of Directors, appointed by Jackson’s Mayor and City Council, governs Jackson Energy Authority.

Jackson Energy Authority is one of few public utilities in the United States offering customers all major utility services from one company. We provide reliable electric, gas, propane, water, wastewater, and broadband services. We serve about 40,000 residences, businesses and industry in Jackson, TN and parts of Madison County. We also supply propane to customers not on our natural gas system.
