Public power districts and electric co-ops are places to build a career and connections, develop your skills and make a difference in the community you call home. Whether you’re keeping the lights on, helping a member save energy, maintaining critical infrastructure or supporting the people who do, your work matters. This Careers in Energy Week, we’re celebrating the people who power our communities—and the many paths available to join them.

Want to save energy at home?

Install a smart or programmable thermostat that adjusts to your lifestyle and saves energy.
Use small appliances like a toaster oven or slow cooker, when possible.
Take a short shower instead of a bath. And don't forget to turn off the tap while brushing your teeth.

Scammers want you to act before you have time to think. Before clicking a link in an email or text, stop and look closely. Is the message unexpected? Does the website address look legitimate? Is someone pressuring you to act immediately? When in doubt, go directly to the company’s official website or contact them using a trusted phone number—not the information provided in the suspicious message.

If your equipment contacts a power line, pole, or guy wire, stay in the cab and call 911. Warn others to stay away and only exit when utility personnel confirm it’s safe.

If you MUST get out of your equipment because of an immediate danger:
👉 Keep your arms tucked, jump away from the equipment with your feet together, ensuring no part of your body touches the equipment and ground at the same time and land with your feet together.

👉 Shuffle away from the equipment with your feet ALWAYS touching until you are at least 40 feet away.

Did you know that switching to energy-efficient LED bulbs can brighten your home and save on electricity costs.
Lighting accounts for around 15 percent of an average home's electricity use, and the average household saves about $225 in energy costs per year by using LED lighting.
If you are still using incandescent light bulbs, switching to energy-efficient lighting is one of the fastest ways to cut your energy bills.
The cost of LED light bulbs has decreased dramatically since they entered the market. While LEDs are more expensive than traditional incandescent bulbs, they still save money because they last a long time and have very low energy use.
