Utilities

New Bremen offers businesses access to the utilities they need for their operations to run smoothly. Here’s how you can find resources you can rely on.

New Bremen’s Public Power: Moderate Rates with Maximum Service

New Bremen is a public power community. Public power means that our local customers — residential and businesses alike — own the electric company. It’s an approach that allows us to offer quality and dependable service at reasonable rates.

Because we are locally owned and operated, if there is a problem, you know exactly who to call and where their office is located. Our system provides a reliable and consistent electrical supply. In the last two years, we have only had three days with power outages.

Electrical power is delivered to the village at 69,000 volts by the Dayton Power and Light Company. At the two village substations, the voltage is reduced to 12,470/7200 volts for distribution around town to individual customer transformers.

Telecommunications

New Bremen has telecommunication advantages that surpass those typical of communities our size. Thanks to the innovative efforts and capital investments of New Knoxville Telephone Company, our local telecom provider, local businesses have access to high-quality services at the best possible price.
