The Leaf is home!
John arrived with 7% charge and 20 miles of range left. In total, the drive was 550 miles and required 20 hours of charging using only member cooperative electrons.
Thank you to Eau Claire Energy Cooperative, Barron Electric Cooperative, Jump River Electric Cooperative, Inc. and Bayfield Electric Cooperative for making this trip possible. #EVRoadTrip
The Leaf is on its way home! John arrived in Barron Electric Cooperative this morning with a 43% charge and 100 miles left in the tank. After a quick charge there they ventured to Eau Claire Energy Cooperative, arriving with 35% and 85 miles left on the batteries. The Leaf will charge there for the next hour and they will be on their last leg home. #EVRoadTrip
John made it to Bayfield Electric Cooperative today with a 4% charge remaining and 10 miles of range left. It was a close call after yesterday's detour set him back about 20 miles. The Leaf will charge today so it's ready for the journey home tomorrow. First stop is Barron Electric Cooperative! #EVRoadTrip
An unexpected bridge closure sent John on a detour to our good friends at Chippewa Valley Electric Cooperative. He made it to Jump River Electric Cooperative, Inc. with a 34% charge and now the Leaf is charging for its trip to Bayfield Electric Cooperative. #EVRoadTrip
First stop complete! John arrived at Eau Claire Energy Cooperative with 54% charge left. He'll charge until 80% and be on his way Jump River Electric Cooperative, Inc. #EVRoadTrip

Don't let energy bills scare you this Halloween. Be sure to protect yourself with these #energyefficiency tips.
Farmers have a long history of leading the way, even when it comes to #ElectionDay.
Did you know farm life is the reason we vote on a Tuesday in November? According to History.com, in the 1800s, most people worked as farmers and lived far from their polling place. Factoring in time to travel to the polling location, the Tuesday after the first Monday in November was selected because Sunday was church day, Wednesday was market day and November is considered after the harvest.

THANK YOU: We are very grateful for the quick response of area fire departments following a fire at Dairyland's power plant in Alma this afternoon.
Thankfully, there were no injuries and the fire is fully contained. The fire did not impact plant operations and the plant is still online.
Unfortunately, in today’s world, scams are inevitable. We have received calls from people inquiring about checks that were sent from Dairyland. This is a scam and Dairyland is not associated nor are our banking partners. Please be aware of scammers asking for money to be re-deposited or looking for additional personal information. #utilityscamawareness
