One benefit of being a #PublicPower provider is how in tune with their community they are. 🤝 They support local priorities, values, & choices that directly impact their neighbors. They take pride in ensuring the concerns of their community are at the forefront of their work.

Electronics & lighting contribute an average of 33% to your energy usage, so make sure you have good energy habits to help #SaveMoney on your next bill! ⚡🔋 Turn off lights when you leave a room & unplug electronics when you’re not using them. #EnergyTips

#PublicPower utilities are locally owned, locally operated, and locally controlled. Local ownership means decisions are made in local communities, increased reliability and transparency, unmatched customer service, and support for local priorities and values of the community. 🤝

Grab those pencils and pack those backpacks, it’s #BackToSchoolMonth! 🎒 Being a locally-owned #PublicPower utility allows our members to support what’s most important to their neighbors like the schools in their communities. Let’s get powered up to learn!

Reliability: #PublicPower is driven by that word. #PublicPower customers enjoy higher reliability ratings compared to other energy providers. They can stay focused on all the games, dinners, movie nights, first dates, and front-porch talks that make us all a community. ⚡
