As 2024 wraps up, we are looking ahead to a new year with our new CEO Chris Hansen, more steps to take in our energy-independence journey and more ways to serve you, our members.
With our members in mind, the Board of Directors voted during the December Board meeting to approve the allocation of ~$2.6 million in excess revenue from the Tri-State pass-through rate increase (collected January - July 2024) to the rate stabilization fund. This decision reflects the Board's commitment to using these funds conservatively to mitigate future rate impacts and provide benefits to members over the next few years.
While this Board action will ensure long-term benefits for our members, there are some immediate steps you can take to manage energy use and save money this winter:
- Join us for an Energy-Saving Webinar on December 18th from 6 p.m. - 7 p.m.
- Check your SmartHub account to compare your usage to last winter.
- Review common causes for higher energy costs 👉 here
- Refresh your memory on these energy-saving tips for winter 👉 here
- Check out some ideas to save $$$ while you're away for the holidays 👉 here
Finally, our offices will be closed on Wednesday and Thursday, December 25 and 26 for Christmas, and Wednesday, January 1 in observance of the new year. Wishing you and yours the happiest of holidays!
Stay warm out there,
Your LPEA Team
