It’s TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIME! 🎄🎅

Our Electric Systems elves have been busy this week hanging the wreaths, putting up the lights, and getting everything ready for our annual Christmas in Concord events!

With just a little over two weeks until the tree lighting ceremony and historic Concord Christmas Parade, they traded in their hard hats for Santa hats (not really, because safety first!) and installed our Christmas tree in Downtown Concord NC and festive lighting throughout the City.

For our crews, hanging the holiday lights isn’t just another task to do, it’s about giving back to the community, carrying on hometown traditions, and spreading a little bit of holiday magic. Because they don't just work here, they live here, and they're raising their families here too. 🫶

A big thank you to our Electric Systems crews for going the extra mile to make our City shine this holiday season!

Good news, Concord!

In coordination with City of Kannapolis - Community News, Town of Harrisburg, NC, and Town of Landis, we’re moving to Level 1: Voluntary Water Conservation, effective immediately. Drought conditions have improved across the region and we’re officially saying goodbye to mandatory water restrictions.

We want to thank everyone who reduced their water use this summer - every drop counts, and small actions by customers add up to major impacts that support continued improvement.
While conditions have improved, the region’s water supply has not yet fully returned to normal and customers are encouraged to continue working together to reduce unnecessary water use.

Visit our website for tips on reducing unnecessary water use at home: ConcordNC.gov/DroughtResources
