Three cooperatives that have supplied energy and agricultural products to east central
Indiana for more than 60 years have joined forces to form Hometown Energy LLC.

The joint venture between Decatur County REMC and Bartholomew County REMC,
and Premier Ag co-op's LP gas service allows area residents to participate in a
streamlined LP gas metering program.

Hometown Energy takes elements from each of the three parent companies and
combines them into one program. The company combines the meter reading
infrastructure employed by the REMCs and the LP gas service offered by Premier Ag.

Customers participating in the program have their LP gas usage metered and read
at the same time as their electric meters. LP gas and electric energy consumption
is then summarized on one easy-to-read statement. The LP gas usage is
monitored and the tank filled as needed.

Hometown Energy customers also benefits by taking advantage of guaranteed LP
gas pricing for the entire heating season with payment due each month, only after the
fuel has been used.

Those wishing to participate in the LP gas program need not be REMC members.
The program is available to everyone in the community at the same price and terms.
Hometown Energy will also schedule individual meetings as needed to determine how
best to meet consumer needs. Contact our office at 812 663-3391 or e-mail us at
