Power Theft

Power Theft is an international problem and public safety issue with real consequences.

Billions of dollars are stolen from utilities annually, and unfortunately, these losses must be passed along to our members. But it’s not just about money. Power theft poses shock and fire hazards to the perpetrators and to innocent families, friends, and neighbors. These conditions can lead to property damage, personal injury, and even death.

VEC has taken a proactive stance on energy theft, but we need your help. Please call our office at (361) 573-2428 to report any situation you believe may involve power theft to initiate an investigation.
