Electricity is at the heart of everything you do. From brewing your first cup of coffee each morning to turning off the lights before bed, public power energizes your everyday life in ways you might not even notice. That’s even more reason for you to love public power.
#PublicPowerWeek #ILovePublicPower
At Melrose Public Utilities, we love what we do, and that’s why we’re inviting you to join us in celebrating Public Power Week from October 6-12. It’s a time to recognize the benefits of community-owned, locally controlled power and its positive impact on our lives. Together, let’s celebrate public power — at the heart of everything you do!
