Always Working for Our Members 🛠️
|
As we head into a new year, we want you to know that we are always working for our members. As an example, our cooperative, along with our suppliers, Corn Belt Power Cooperative and Central Iowa Power Cooperative, monitor the potential for power shortages and take steps to prevent problems in our area.
As part of the mix, the details below about energy and demand can help you lower the demand for electricity during peak periods. The downed line article is a must-read for safety during winter storms (and all year-round, of course). As always, if you have questions about any of this info, get in touch with us!
