The Berwick Electric Commission (BEC) operates the distribution system that serves the Town and some adjacent areas of Kings County.

Staff undertake line construction and maintenance, meter installations and meter reading, hydro control and maintenance, and standby duty and trouble calls. Operationally, the BEC employs three Powerline Technicians who conduct meter work and hydro operations as well.

Customer service for new accounts, and other day to day requests, are completed by the Finance Administration Coordinator who works from the Berwick Town Hall.

The Berwick Electric Commission operates one fully capable double bucket truck, a digger derrick for pole setting, a vehicle for general transportation and a diesel 4x4 and a tracked vehicle for hydro operations. BEC also assists the Town of Berwick with daily operations as needed, and help to support special community events such as Gala Days.
