Everyday Value

As we welcome a new year, we’re filled with excitement about the opportunities that lie ahead.

It’s a time for setting resolutions, both personal and professional, and reflecting on how we can achieve our goals. At Poudre Valley REA, we’re not just dreaming about the future; we’re actively planning to ensure a successful year for our cooperative and our members.

One of our primary focuses this year is enhancing and illustrating the value we bring to you, our members. In 2025, we’re introducing new products and services designed to help you save even more of your hard-earned dollars. As we prepare for these offerings, it’s essential to ensure our system continues to be ready and reliable.

A key aspect of this involves our proactive approach to vegetation management in our rights of way. For those unfamiliar, a right of way refers to the designated areas around our electric lines and equipment that must remain clear to prevent service interruptions caused by falling branches or other debris.

Managing these rights of way is no small task. It requires meticulous planning and daily diligence. With thousands of miles of line to maintain, our dedicated teams, alongside contracted specialists, work tirelessly to ensure that trees and vegetation are appropriately managed so your energy stays ready and reliable. Highly trained and qualified personnel tackle this ongoing maintenance with care to advance power reliability and wildfire prevention.

If you notice trees or other vegetation growing into our rights of way or equipment, please contact us so our trained professionals can safely address these hazards. Easily submit a tree trimming request online or by calling us at 800.432.1012. You can read more about our dedicated vegetation management crew by clicking here.

At Poudre Valley REA, our commitment goes beyond immediate concerns. We prioritize the long-term success of our cooperative and the community we call home. Unlike utilities that may prioritize short-term profits or shareholder dividends, we are deeply rooted in our community. Our thoughtful approach focuses on responsible practices that sustain the safety and reliability of our services for years to come.

As we embark on this journey of a new year, we wish you all the best in pursuing your own resolutions and plans. Rest assured, we are here to safeguard the reliable services you need so you can turn your aspirations into reality. This is just one of the many ways your cooperative is committed to providing you with everyday value.

Together, let’s make this year a success.
