We're Committed To You!
Hear it from our members!
Our commitment to providing members a higher quality of life by offering safe, reliable power has been the goal of the cooperative since its inception in 1945. Throughout the years, our members have witnessed the co-op grow from the first distribution lines to nearly 80 substations spread throughout our service area. From the early days of lighting barns with kerosene lanterns, cutting blocks of ice for early refrigeration, and pumping water with hand-pump water wells, we're proud to offer a service that has changed the farms and ranches of western North Dakota forever.
In this member-impact film, two families who received power in 1951 share their experiences of when electricity changed their way of life.
