Santee Cooper is governed by a 14-member Board of Directors.
Twelve members are appointed by the Governor, deemed fully qualified by the Senate Public Utilities Review Committee and confirmed by the state Senate. These include one from each of the state's congressional districts; one from each of the three counties (Berkeley, Georgetown and Horry) where Santee Cooper serves retail customers directly; two Directors with previous electric cooperative experience; and a Chairman appointed at large. There is currently one vacant seat.
Two members are Ex Officio and represent Central Electric Power Cooperative, Santee Cooper’s largest customer: one is the Central Chair or designee, and the other is elected by the Central Board of Trustees.
