February Between the Lines!

LMRE was excited to host HVAC students from the Medina County Career Center on Feb. 4 for a building tour. The students got an overview of our LMRE systems, cooperative equipment like load control devices they might come across while working within the LMRE service territory, and how the co-op encourages energy efficiency and lowering electricity demand through rebates and expert knowledge.
It was a pleasure having the students join us for an evening, and we wish them all the best throughout their education!
