Independence Light & Power, Telecommunications (ILP,T) is a municipally owned and operated electric and water utility, serving more than 3,000 customers in Independence, Iowa. We strive to provide low-cost, reliable service with a community-focused, personal touch. We are your friends and neighbors who share your values and understand your needs.
ILP,T was founded in 1893. While a lot has changed over the past century, the focus of the utility has not. Today, we still offer our customers some of the lowest electric rates in the area - rates significantly lower than those in territories that are served by most investor-owned utilities. And, since we live and work in the community, we provide reliable energy with superior customer service.

We look forward to continuing our growth and improvements and providing the citizens of the Independence area a direct connection to the limitless information super-highway.
