The Jacksonville company serves as the regional branch of a national management corporation that gears itself toward the power utilities industry. If contracted, its function will be to market surplus power to outside companies for Henderson Municipal Power and Light of Henderson, Kentucky.

Gary Quick, general manager of Henderson Municipal Power and Light, told the Henderson Gleaner that discussions about the idea are continuing and no decisions have been made.
