Fairfield Electric Cooperative is offering six $1000 Touchstone Energy Scholarships.  High school seniors whose primary residence is served by FEC are eligible to apply.  Special consideration is given to need, extracurricular activities, community involvement, recommendations, and the student's personal achievements.

The recipients were selected based on their scholastic record, community involvement and extra-curricular activities.  Fairfield's Touchstone Energy Scholarships are available to students whose primary residence is served by the cooperative.

To make solar energy more accessible for all consumer-members, Fairfield Electric Cooperative has constructed a community solar farm at its Winnsboro Office on Highway 321 north of Winnsboro.  

Community or “shared” solar, means multiple people get electricity from a midsized solar array, offering a convenient option for consumers who want a part of their monthly power to come from the carbon-free resource.
