The Power of Forward Thinking
Energy Efficiency Partnerships
Heartland has formed several partnerships with well-known organizations to further develop energy efficient practices in our customer communities. These partnerships provide a variety of benefits and give us access to resources, ideas and knowledgeable support networks to increase the effectiveness of our energy efficiency program, Power Forward.
Heartland has partnered with the American Public Power Association to promote energy efficiency. APPA has developed Energy Efficiency Resource Central, public power’s national information resource for energy efficiency programs and assistance. The goals of the program include informing all public power utilities about Energy Efficiency Resource Central, assisting members in implementing energy efficiency programs, sharing available resources and capturing and accumulating information on energy efficiency efforts and savings to demonstrate public power’s commitment to energy efficiency. Visit www.EERCnet.org to learn more.
ENERGY STAR is the recognized symbol for energy efficiency with more than 70% of American households recognizing the ENERGY STAR label. The label appears on more than 50 product categories with those products being 10 to 25% more efficient than required by the federal standard while providing top performance and innovative features. In this partnership, Heartland has committed to promoting ENERGY STAR products and programs as an easy way to save on energy bills. A partnership with ENERGY STAR gives Heartland access to a vast amount of resources, networking opportunities and brand recognition. To learn more about the ENERGY STAR program or to become a partner, visit www.energystar.gov.
Heartland is one of 11 energy providers partnering in South Dakota Energy Smart, a voluntary statewide energy efficiency initiative launched by the South Dakota Public Utilities Commission. This initiative is designed to foster the development, implementation and promotion of energy efficiency programs in South Dakota.
South Dakota Energy Smart is a comprehensive approach to energy efficiency, addressing the responsibility of consumers, energy providers and regulators to be reactive and proactive to rising energy costs, taking steps towards energy security and independence and to be stewards of the land.
