Triple-digit temps are arriving and Umatilla Electric Cooperative is urging members to stay safe and conserve energy.
Our crews are working year-round to reduce wildfire risks through vegetation management and system maintenance. You can help by safely extinguishing campfires, clearing dry vegetation, and following all local fire regulations.
As the heat warms up, demand for electricity rises, and we are encouraging members to help us "Beat the Peak." Delay major appliance use until evening, raise your thermostat when you're away, and close blinds during the hottest parts of the day. Even small changes can make a big impact on system reliability and your energy bill!
