PowerSouth’s service territory, spanning nearly 50 counties across two states, is home to some of the southeast’s fastest growing communities. We aim to support and encourage this growth by working with our customers, connecting them to vital resources, and – where possible – providing for their needs.
Take advantage of the funding programs that exist in our service area.
Funding Programs
Just as PowerSouth Energy Cooperative provides a Revolving Loan Fund, many of PowerSouth’s member systems maintain their own Revolving Loan Funds.
Revolving Loan Fund General Guidelines
- Contact a local cooperative for interest rates, conditions, and terms.
- The maximum loan rate is the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal.
- The loan term is not to exceed ten (10) years.
- Building – 10 years
- Real estate – 10 years
- Equipment – 5 to 7 years (or anticipated life of the equipment)
- Working capital – 1 to 3 years Loan servicing fees are no more than 1% per year of the annual outstanding principal.
- Supplemental financing of 66% is required and must include at least 10% equity.
Availability, terms, and conditions may vary by cooperative.
