AMP is pleased to feature the City of Amherst and its 90-year-old utility in our Member spotlight. Located in northern Ohio, Amherst is situated in Amherst County and has been an AMP Member since 1972.

In 1811, pioneer Jacob Shupe cleared land near Beaver Creek and established the first settlement in what is now Amherst. On that land, he built a sawmill that helped support the area's early growth, and the community was officially platted in 1836. Vast sandstone deposits beneath the city fueled economic development through quarrying and earned Amherst its well-known nickname as the “Sandstone Center of the World.”

Amherst’s sandstone heritage remains visible today in historic buildings throughout the community. One of the most recognizable examples is Amherst Town Hall, a striking sandstone structure built in 1884 that remains a centerpiece of the community.

Amherst has been home to several notable figures over the years, including professional wrestler Jerry “The King” Lawler, a WWE Hall of Famer; and John Penton, a motorcycle racing pioneer and founder of the Penton motorcycle brand who played a major role in the growth of off-road motorcycling in the United States.

When communities own their utilities, the focus stays on the people they serve. As Don Harrod, a recipient of the 2026 American Public Power Association Seven Hats Award, explains, public power utilities reinvest in reliability, infrastructure and services that strengthen the communities they serve — all while putting their friends and neighbors first.

AMP is pleased to feature the City of Cannelton and its 77-year-old utility in our Member spotlight. Located in southern Indiana, Cannelton is situated in Perry County and has been an AMP Member since 2014.

Founded in 1836, Cannelton began as a coal mining community and was originally known as Coal Haven. The city adopted the name Cannelton in 1844, inspired by the cannel coal — a specific type of coal that heats quickly — that was mined in the town.

Cannelton is not only known for its coal — it is also a historical sandstone community with an abundance of sandstone present in many of the buildings throughout the city.

In 1849, the community’s economy grew with the construction of the Cannelton Cotton Mill, which became one of the largest industrial buildings west of the Allegheny Mountains. The mill produced uniforms for troops during the Civil War and both World Wars. In 1990, the mill became a National Historic Landmark.

Cannelton is located next to the Ohio River, close to the Cannelton Locks and Dam, which was selected as the site for one of AMP’s run-of-the-river hydro plant projects. On behalf of the project’s participating Members, AMP owns and operates the Cannelton Hydroelectric Plant, an 88-megawatt, run-of-the-river hydroelectric facility that became operational in 2016.

Happy National Virginia Day to our five Members in the Old Dominion State.


💡The Commonwealth of Virginia, founded in 1788, was the 10th state to ratify the U.S. Constitution.
💡More Virginians work for the U.S. government than in any other state and many U.S. government agencies are headquartered in northern Virginia — including the Central Intelligence Agency, National Fish and Wildlife Service and Department of the Defense.
💡Jamestown, the first English colony in the United States, was founded in Virginia in 1607.
💡Virginia is nicknamed the Old Dominion State because it was originally thought of as one of England’s dominions, or territories.
💡With a total of eight, Virginia has produced the most U.S. Presidents, which is why the state is known as the Mother of Presidents.
