About KU

Kaukauna Utilities is a community owned and operated electric and water utility, serving approximately 16,000 customers in the Kaukauna area. The utility provides electric service to the City of Kaukauna and parts of the following: the Villages of Little Chute and Combined Locks, and Towns of Buchanan, Freedom, Holland, Kaukauna, Oneida, Vandenbroek, and Wrightstown. Water service is provided to approximately 7,000 customers in the City of Kaukauna.

At Kaukauna Utilities, we strive to provide low-cost, reliable service with a friendly, personal touch. After all, we are your friends and neighbors who share your values and understand your needs. That’s what makes a local, community-owned utility a valuable asset to citizens and the community.

Kaukauna Utilities was founded in 1912 by the citizens of Kaukauna. While a lot has changed, the focus of Kaukauna Utilities has not. Today, Kaukauna Utilities still offers its residents some of the lowest electric rates in the state – rates significantly lower than those in territories that are served by investor-owned utilities.

Kaukauna Utilities also provides its customers with clean, high-quality water that meets or exceeds all state and federal standards.

We welcome the community’s input in our decisions and programs. You can also call us at (920) 766-5721, email us at kumail@ku-wi.org or visit our office at 777 Island Street, Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m -4:00 p.m.
