What's New
Electric cooperative member-consumers who use their electric co-ops’ energy-efficiency programs in the next five years are projected to save enough electricity to power approximately 350,000 homes for one year.
During the five-year period, 2010-2014, Iowa’s electric cooperatives plan on investing $71.5 million on new and existing energy-efficiency programs for homes, farms and businesses in their service areas, which includes parts of all of Iowa’s 99 counties. The investment and resulting energy savings are in the Electric Cooperatives’ Joint Energy-Efficiency Report filed Dec. 31, 2009, with the Iowa Utilities Board. The report was the result of an 18-month, in-depth assessment of electric co-ops’ energy-efficiency programs, which was used to set the co-ops’ energy-efficiency goals for the next five years.
