Annual Energy Expo Brings Community and Resources Together

It’s Energy Awareness month and the Annual Energy Expo kicked off to help inform the community about the resources available to them.

The expo was designed to inform attendees what resources are available to them.

OneRoof, Ecolibrium3, Citizens Utility Board, and many other representatives were there.

They had a free hot lunch, the opportunity to sign up for energy assistance, a free goody bag with energy saving products and tools.

New this year, were some workshops such as how to understand your bill, insulating the home for cold weather, and other energy saving tips.

“Energy affordability, especially during the cold winter months, is incredibly important. So, we want to make sure customers are aware of the resources and the fact that we’ll work with them to find solutions that fit their unique financial circumstances.” said Tina Koecher, Director of Customer Experience Operations at Minnesota Power.

While the expo was invite-only, if you’re struggling to keep up on your energy bills one of the main things you can do is call Minnesota Power at (800)-228-4966.

One of their representatives will walk you through the options available to you, based on your needs.

There are also resources on their website with energy saving tips and more.
