Great River Energy to Host First DTECH Midwest Regional Conference

Great River Energy electric cooperative of Minnesota will be the host utility at a major regional conference that brings electric utilities of all types together to discuss solutions to challenges facing the power industry.

DTECH Midwest—the first regional meeting in the region—will be held July 14-16 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. GRE's commitment marks the first time an electric co-op has been the top utility sponsor of a DTECH event.

“It's in our backyard, in the state where 26 of our member co-ops and their consumer-members are located, and being the host utility just seemed like the right thing to do," said Jeff Haase, a professional engineer who serves as director of member services at the Maple Grove-based generation and transmission co-op.
