WH Holding subsidiary businesses
WH owns multiple subsidiary businesses, which are separate from the electric operation.
WH Holding is the legal umbrella under which these businesses reside, protecting the electric cooperative's not-for-profit status. WH Holding absorbs approximately $1.6 million per year in cost allocations from the electric operation that otherwise would need to be reflected in members' electric rates. These businesses keep costs down by generating profits and eating costs, which offsets the retail price of electricity for WH members.
