Load Management
Load
management is a key component in Roseau Electric Cooperative's mission of
keeping your rates low. Members who participate in the program
receive significant rate discounts but they are not the only ones
saving money. All members benefit from this program.
What is load Management?
The load management program enables Roseau Electric
Cooperative to control
electric load during peak periods of demand. The coldest, windiest
winter days and the hottest, most humid summer days produce these
peak demand periods. Load control may also be influenced by the
availability and price of electric energy in the wholesale
marketplace. The actual control is done from Minnkota Power
Cooperative's office in Grand Forks, N.D.
Off-peak
electric heat is Roseau Electric's primary load management program.
Off-peak customers allow Roseau Electric Cooperative to switch their electric heat
to an alternative heat source for a significantly reduced rate.
Off-peak customers also have the option to have their water
heaters controlled and receive a monthly credit on their bill.

information about Roseau Electric's load management program, call our
office at 888-847-8840 and ask for member services.
