Through The Wire, which launched in June 2015, we share our employees’ expertise and interesting ways our customers are using energy and maximizing efficiency. We provide timely news, tips and more.  We welcome visitor feedback and dialogue at the end of posts on the site, which is accessible via mobile devices.

Providing great customer service remains one of our hallmarks, and The Wire is a way for us to do that.
