Dakota Energy Cooperative, Inc. is an electric distribution cooperative in South Dakota. Across 6 federally declared storm disasters between 2005 and 2022, FEMA has obligated $9,455,903 in Public Assistance funding toward 87 recovery projects — an average of $1.6M per event. The incident types on record are severe storm.

Every one of those dollars began as field documentation — GPS-tagged damage, force-account labor and equipment logs, and photo evidence assembled into FEMA Project Worksheets. When that capture is rushed or incomplete, eligible costs go unclaimed. CoopRecover is built by someone who has assembled this documentation for large federally declared events: field crews photograph and evidence-grade damage on any device, costs roll up live against estimated eligible dollars, and PA-ready packages export mapped to your own templates. When the next storm hits South Dakota, Dakota Energy Cooperative, Inc. can capture more of what it's owed.

Capture more of what the next storm owes you.

CoopRecover turns field damage into FEMA-ready Project Worksheet packages in real time. Set up a pilot on your own data, no obligation.
