GUC’s Public Information Office has won another Excellence in Public Power Communications Award of Merit from APPA. 

This year’s win was for a video created to educate customers on how GUC’s electric rates are not only the lowest in Pitt County, but also lower than they were 10 years ago. The video was part of a comprehensive campaign that also used ads, social media posts, and media interviews to remind customers of the value of GUC being a community-owned utility. 

This is the 13th APPA award that GUC’s Public Information Office has won.

The American Public Power Association is the voice of not-for-profit, community-owned utilities that power 54 million people in 49 states and five territories. APPA advocates and advises on electricity policy, technology, trends, training, and operation.
