Co-ops come in all shapes and sizes, but each has something important in common: co-ops relect the communities they serve. No two co-ops are exactly alike....because every community has unique needs. Local leadership allows co-ops to be nimble and support their members in different ways.

Interested in learning more about the proposed 345kV Transmission line that will run through western South Dakota? Check out the link in the comments to attend a meeting near you.

Basin Electric will host several public open houses this fall to gather feedback on its proposed Laramie River-to-Belfield 345-kilovolt transmission project. The project includes approximately 400 miles of transmission line across portions of Wyoming, Nebraska, South Dakota and North Dakota.

Upcoming open houses will offer opportunities to review project information and provide feedback.

As we continue to celebrate National Co-op Month, recognizing our members is a MUST! Members are the heart of co-ops. Unlike traditional businesses that are led by investors or shareholders, co-ops are led by the members they serve-and that positively impacts priorities. Investing locally and providing long-term value is the co-op way.⚡️🤝🏼

Eric did great at helping Lydia pick out her bike, we decided to bring him along again to help Ella pick out hers! Ella is our 3-7 age category winner from the safety course at Member Appreciation Day. 🚲⚡️

Colors make or break the bike at this age and she wasn’t too sure if she wanted pink and blue or purple and blue. But after some thoughtful consideration and a couple questions later, purple took the win and went home with Ella! Happy biking, Ella!
