LELWD Recognized As A Smart Energy Provider
LELWD has been nationally recognized for a second time as a Smart Energy Provider (SEP) from the American Public Power Association for demonstrating a commitment to and proficiency in energy efficiency, distributed generation, and environmental initiatives that support the goal of providing safe, reliable, low-cost, and sustainable electric service.
The American Public Power Association recognizes public power utilities for demonstrating leading practices in four key disciplines: smart energy program structure; energy efficiency and distributed energy programs; environmental and sustainability initiatives; and customer experience.
The SEP Designation Award
The SEP designation lasts for two years and LELWD was first designated as a smart energy provider in 2019, and had to reapply to hold the designation.
