Through the support and embrace of the members, the MREA Energy Issues Summit has evolved into an exclusive environment for electric co-ops in Minnesota and the Midwest region to become informed on key issues, exchange ideas, share experiences, and talk through various co-op strategies. Co-op directors, CEOs and staff come to the Summit to learn how to address a swarm of new challenges in the energy industry that are evolving our co-op business, changing member expectations and causing regulatory models to adapt. As the agenda is formed, details will be added here.
