We are working on a custom rebate for a 400 <br /> horse power variable frequency drive. <br /> • Residential rebates are very active this summer. As residential construction continues to <br /> rise,there has been an increased interest in dual fuel. The polar vortex and the propane <br /> shortages of two years ago are still fresh in the minds of customers building new homes. <br /> • Attended a meeting with the Elk River Economic Development Director to discuss the <br /> transition of a large commercial account from Connexus Energy to ERMU. <br /> • Met with Greater MSP and a possible data center customer. The estimated load at this <br /> point is 4 MW. The meeting went well and we answered all their questions. The initial <br /> feedback from Greater MSP is that Elk River did well. <br /> Eig IOWEREB BY <br /> Page 1 of 1 NATURE <br /> Reliable Public <br /> Power Provider P O W E R E D T o S E R V E <br /> 206 <br />
