Delivering future-ready broadband solutions to underserved areas
Since 1936, the Tri-County Rural Electric Cooperative has provided power to its seven member counties in north-central Pennsylvania. In 2019, they partnered with Corning to deliver a new social improvement to the region: fast, reliable broadband services. Tri-Co Connections was formed to provide over 23,000 homes with internet service. And according to COO Aaron Young, Corning has “more than lived up to its reputation” in its commitment to providing the fiber and supply chain support they need.
