At Ignite Broadband, our mission is clear: to connect people and communities across Dickson Electric’s system through reliable high-speed internet access. We believe in the power of connectivity to transform lives, businesses, and the entire fabric of our communities. Our goal is to build long-term partnerships with our valued customers, empowering them to grow, thrive, live, and play in an increasingly digital world.
Ignite Broadband is not just another internet service provider; we are a division of Dickson Electric, a trusted municipal electric system with a rich history of serving over 38,000 homes and businesses across five counties in rural Middle Tennessee since 1905.
In March of 2023, Ignite Broadband was launched with the mission of connecting the people and communities of Dickson Electric System, after the DES Board of Public Utilities had, in response to the ever-evolving needs of the communities served, previously voted unanimously in favor of offering high-speed, reliable broadband services to all Dickson Electric System (DES) customers. This momentous decision initiated the largest investment in the history of Dickson Electric and marked the birth of Ignite Broadband, an initiative aimed at bridging the digital divide and enhancing the quality of life for every customer and community we serve.
