Efficiency & Technology Display Program

The freshly refocused program features a hybrid Chevy Tahoe that Michael Riedman uses to bring displays to member cooperative events.

Basin Electric offers the Efficiency and Technology Display Program as a service to its member cooperatives. Founded in 1994 as the Electric Technologies Program, the program has changed its focus from promoting electric technologies in general to promoting energy efficiency and conservation through innovative technologies.

Michael Riedman, Basin Electric's electric technology coordinator, brings the program's booth to about 70 events annually, including cooperative annual meetings; home, and farm and ranch shows; state and county fairs; schools; and other special events by request.

The Efficiency and Technology Display Program allows visitors to these venues to experience first-hand efficient technologies that can help them get more value out of their energy dollars. Visitors can also learn how the energy experts at their local electric cooperative can help them make smart energy choices in their homes and businesses.

Requests for the Efficiency and Technology Display Program must be directed through Basin Electric's member cooperatives.
