Responsible Operations

All our power plants meet current environmental regulatory limits and standards for emissions.

Active Stewards

We lead the charge in many statewide stewardship events such as the "NREA Energy Camp" for high school students in Halsey; "Water Daze" in Elkhorn; and our annual Arbor Day Celebration in a selected retail community with a vegetation need. Our employee initiated recycling efforts demonstrate all resource-conscious activities are important, whether large or small.
