Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Linemen are TOUGH. They work hard delivering electricity every day and restore power after severe storms, which subjects them to the harsh conditions we know well here in Nebraska.
That said, they would all acknowledge that people bravely facing the challenge of cancer are even tougher than they are.
This month is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and they are sporting their pink to show support for women dealing with breast cancer. Also, these guys hope that by wearing pink, it will serve as a reminder for women to follow through on annual checkups to catch this form of cancer as early as possible.
October Is Public Power Month
Nebraska has the distinction of being the only state in the U.S. where every single home and business receives electric service from publicly owned utilities. Southern Power District is proud to be your partner in power, as our mission statement declares, we “safely provide our customers with highly reliable and competitively priced electricity, superior customer service and innovative energy solutions.
RELIABLE SERVICE
As the years go by, your needs and expectations for electric service have evolved. As you introduce new technologies into your homes, farms and businesses, we are constantly examining new technologies that can improve upon your already reliable electric service. As we explore new technologies, we evaluate our system to assure we are standing ready with facilities that meet your changing needs.
COMPETITIVELY PRICED
We work hard to keep energy costs affordable while serving the long-term needs of our rural customers and communities. Our locally-elected board establishes rates, and finances system improvements with revenue bonds that are exempt from federal income tax. We keep close watch over our operations, ensuring that investments in our system and service bring you the benefits that you deserve.
