Powering Our Community, Investing in Our Future
As a locally owned, not-for-profit utility, New Richmond Utilities is proud to be part of the community we serve. Our mission goes beyond providing reliable, affordable electricity—we’re here to invest in our community and help make it a great place to live, learn, and grow.
We love connecting with the next generation! Each year, our staff visit 4th grade classrooms to present PowerTown and Pedal Power, engaging students in fun, hands-on lessons about electrical safety and the importance of energy efficiency.
We also welcome opportunities to host student field trips. Visiting New Richmond Utilities gives students a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to keep the lights on today, while exploring how technology and innovation may shape the energy industry of tomorrow.
We’re proud to support our local schools through incentive and grant programs that help expand resources and create new opportunities for students to learn about energy, electricity, and the exciting possibilities of the energy industry.
This is one of the many ways local public power makes a difference. Through the Value of Local Utility Funds and programs provided by our not-for-profit power supplier, WPPI Energy, New Richmond Utilities is able to reinvest in the people, schools, and organizations that make our community special.
Charitable Contributions
As a locally owned, not-for-profit utility, we exist for the benefit of our community. Beyond providing reliable power at a low cost, we also want to give back to the community we serve. Twice annually we accept applications from local organizations seeking charitable contributions to support their mission.
