关于我们
The Minnesota Rural Electric Association (MREA) is a service organization and statewide voice for Minnesota's electric utility cooperatives. MREA's 15 employees provide their expertise in service and leadership including: public awareness communications, safety training, legislative research and lobbying, and industry education programs. A member board representing electric co-ops across the state governs MREA. MREA's members, forty-four electric distribution cooperatives and six generation and transmission (G&T) co-ops in Minnesota, serve 780,000 customer meters or about 1.8 million Minnesotans, covering 85 percent of the geographic area of the state. These cooperatives are locally-owned and operated by boards of directors, who are elected by the consumer-members they serve and operate according to the seven cooperative principles. The cooperatives seek to provide electric energy to rural consumers at the lowest possible cost consistent with sound management. They also promote and fund economic development initiatives to create jobs and maintain a high standard of living for rural and suburban Minnesota residents.

This National Apprentice Week, we’re celebrating the hard work and dedication of the apprentice lineworkers who play a critical role in keeping the lights on across Minnesota. ?? MREA's apprentice program equips apprentices with the skills they need to build and maintain a reliable grid while adapting to the clean energy transition. More than just a career path, it’s an opportunity to be part of a cooperative model that prioritizes community and service. To all the apprentices working hard to keep Minnesota powered: thank you! #NationalApprenticeWeek #CooperativePower

Thank you to our incredible Minnesota crews who hit the road at 7 AM this morning to support hurricane restoration efforts in Florida. As Hurricane Milton approaches, they are heading south to assist Withlacoochee River Electric Cooperative, Inc. along the Gulf Coast, just north of Tampa. This deployment follows on the heels of 80 Minnesota cooperative lineworkers helping restore power in South Carolina after Hurricane Helene. A special shoutout to Luke Waxon, Kyle Ryman, Clay Fleck, Tim Vanderlinde, Wyatt Gadient, and Bryce Anibas from Dakota Electric Association, along with crews from Kandiyohi Power Cooperative, for volunteering for this mission, which is expected to last about two weeks. Safe travels to everyone involved! #MutualAid #CoopsCare #StrongerTogether
