Electric co-ops invested $77 million in efficiency in five years
Iowa’ s not-for-profit electric co-ops have invested nearly $77 million in efficiency programs over the past five years, the Iowa Association of Electric Cooperatives reported. The power conserved would be enough to serve 347,000 homes for a year. “These results reinforce Iowa electric cooperatives’ commitment to our member-owners. We’re helping them use energy wisely through extensive energy efficiency efforts,” Steve Seidl, the association board president, said in a statement.
