We are saddened to learn of the passing of Carolyn Rudebusch. She was one of Heartland's earliest employees, joining in 1977. She worked here 21 years before retiring, and then returned in 2015 as temp help. Sending our deepest condolences to her family.❤️

🔐 You lock your laptop. The electric industry locks down the grid. Cybersecurity helps keep utility systems and critical infrastructure secure, supporting reliable electric service every day. 🛡️ #PublicPowerWeek #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth #CommunityPowered

Public power is about more than keeping the lights on. ⚡ It’s about communities owning their electric systems, making decisions locally and keeping the benefits of those systems close to home.🏘️ Your Community. Your Utility. Your Power. #PublicPowerWeek #CommunityPowered

Public Power gives communities a voice. 📢 Because the electric utility is locally owned, residents can be part of the conversation about the future of their electric system.💬 Your voice matters. So does your utility. #PublicPowerWeek #PublicPower #CommunityPowered

Local ownership means local decisions about rates. #PublicPower utilities set electric rates based on the cost of providing service and the needs of the community. In 2024, public power customers paid 14% less for electricity. #PublicPowerWeek Source: @publicpowerorg
