editorial Random thoughts on a hot summer day... by Scott Handy, President/CEO

Summer heat has made a comeback in a big way! I visit with people in the electric cooperative network from all across our country, and inevitably they ask if we are freezing to death up here no matter what month it is. This year at least we are participating in a real summer complete with heat and lots of sunshine. Our system has handled the higher summer loads just fine, and at least as of this writing in midJuly there has not been a lot of summer load control. It’s probably no secret that our system is pretty dramatically winter peaking. Historically our summer peaks used to be about half what our winter peak was, but that’s changed some in recent years. Now, a typical summer peak is about two-thirds the size of a winter peak, and some of our 35 or so substations are actually summer peaking. When I started in this business 30 years ago, less than half of single family homes had central air conditioning. Now it would be rather rare to find a home without some sort of air conditioning, and it would be virtually unheard of to find an office building or store without it. Not only are there more air conditioners now, but as we’ve added all sorts of heat-generating electric appliances, electronics and other loads, the air conditioners have to work a little harder than they used to as well. The increased amount of electricity used is offset a little by the fact that newer air conditioners are

much more energy efficient than older ones, but overall energy use for cooling is up significantly. So far this summer – really going all the way back to last fall – (knock on wood) we have been spared destructive storms in our service area which has helped keep all those air conditioners and everything else running with high reliability. But other factors as well have contributed to high system reliability. System maintenance has always been a very high priority for us. About $200 million has been invested over the years to build the parts of our electric distribution system. You have a right to expect highly reliable service, and it just makes financial sense to invest in planned, targeted maintenance activities to keep the system running in top-notch condition. Another aspect of system reliability is the use of technology. We’ve covered that a lot in this magazine, and there’s another story in this issue on the use of “smart” meters. These devices bring many operational advantages to the system, not the least of which is that we can “ping” the meters from our power control center to determine if the power is on. This really helps reduce outage time as power control technicians can more accurately determine the extent of an outage and also ensure that everyone on a particular feeder has been restored without having to physically check each account.

www.kwh.com

The last topic I want to cover this month is the results of the extensive emissions control projects that have been done on Minnkota’s power plants in recent years. You probably know more than you want about the $425 million Minnkota has invested in new and improved emissions controls and the resulting large rate increases driven by those investments. What you may not be aware of is that these investments have brought about real, measurable reductions in emissions. You can read more about these emissions in this issue, and I also invite you to check out the emissions reductions graphs on our web site, www. kwh.com. By the time you read my next editorial Labor Day will have passed and we’ll be thinking about fall, back to school activities, hunting, and – dare I say it – preparing for the upcoming heating season.

Power Plant Tour On June 13 and 14, 54 members traveled to the Ashtabula Wind Energy Center, near Valley City and to the Milton R Young power plant, near Center. The annual Power Plant Tour also included a presentation by Minnkota Power Cooperative (MPC). The group stayed at the Seven Seas Hotel in Mandan. Scott Handy and Trudy Wanner, both of Cass County Electric, hosted the tour. The Power Plant Tour is planned by MPC in June of each year. Interested parties should watch for information in the spring of 2013.

New app to access your account information

The Apps are coming.

What if you could pay your utility bill, check your usage and report outages right from your phone, tablet, or computer. With SmartHub you can…new technology is coming soon! Cass County Electric Cooperative is implementing new smart grid technology to serve you better. Starting this fall we will be installing a new e-bill platform called SmartHub. We currently have over 19,000 meters in place that provide energy use data every hour. In the past access to the data was difficult. With the new SmartHub, access will be easy. It will give you the ability to monitor and evaluate your own energy consumption. Currently, you receive a bill a month after you use the energy. With this new tool, you will be able to view the information in hourly, weekly or monthly formats, which you will be able to access from a smart phone, tablet, or computer. This can help you breakdown your power consumption patterns and make informed decisions about energy use. The key to using less energy is to first understand how the energy is being used. Since this will be applicable for every meter on our system by 2016, this technology will also assist in allowing us to operate more efficiently by reading all the meters remotely. Another benefit is increased reliability. These new tools and data will assist with diagnosing problems and provide added information about outages. We will keep you posted with updates on our website and in Highline Notes articles as the project progresses. We look forward to working with you on this new tool and all the benefits it offers. 6 Highline Notes August 2012

www.kwh.com

Beginning in the fall of 2012, we will begin the process of installing SmartHub. Our goal is to have these features available to all members by the end of 2016.

What if you could pay your utility bill, check your usage and report outages... right from your phone, tablet or computer?

With Smarthub, you can.

North Dakota’s air quality receives ‘A’ grade The American Lung Association’s “State of the Air” Annual Report for 2012 gave eight North Dakota counties “A” grades for lack of ozone, also known as smog. One of the eight is Oliver County, where Minnkota’s Milton R. Young Station is located. Oliver County and Mercer County, which also received an “A” grade, are home to five of the state’s seven power plants and the lignite-to-natural gas Great Synsfuel Plant. In addition to the counties, Bismarck ranked as one of the cleanest cities in the nation for ozone and lack of particulates, also known as dust. Fargo was also among the top 25 cleanest cities for lack of particulates.

Environmental Protection Agency. This year’s report covers the years 2008 to 2010. The lung association is not alone in its assessment of North Dakota’s air quality. The EPA has designated North Dakota as one of only nine states to meet all of the nation’s strict federal ambient air quality standards. Utilities in North Dakota have invested nearly $2 billion in technology to help protect the environment. Approximately $425 million has been invested in environmental improvements at the Young Station in the last six years. To see CCEC’s emissions report, visit kwh.com and click on the Conservation and Environement tab and select Emissions Data.

In compiling the annual report each of the past 13 years, the lung association used local data that was submitted to the www.kwh.com


Reliability, it’s a core value and the way we do business It’s up to CCEC to maintain our equipment and stay on top of system maintenance and caretaking. We take this seriously and believe the work we put into maintenance, shows in our outage numbers. In 2011, we had a 99.98 percent reliability rate*. That means that last year, on average, system wide, our members were without electricity for only 107.65 minutes and we think that’s something to be very proud of. Taking care of the present Each year, our engineering & operations department works to maintain the system and construct additions. Maintenance is a broad term to describe all the effort that goes into everything they do. They replace failing equipment, upgrade aging apparatus, and work hard to upkeep the cooperative’s system. CCEC has almost 4,770 miles of line and patrols half its system every year. The problems found range from leaning poles, pulled anchors, frays, wire and tree problem issues. CCEC has over 62,000 poles which are inspected annually on a 15 year rotation. Poles that are rejected are replaced; 369 poles to date in 2012. CCEC recently installed animal protection in an area in West Fargo that was prone to animal outages (squirrels). CCEC continues to monitor underground cable failures and has replaced over 16 miles of failing underground cable in 2012. In recent years, CCEC has alleviated flooding problems by burying or relocating facilities in problem areas. This year, CCEC will replace a line along the Red River in Fargo that has been prone to flooding using a flood mitigation grant received to aid in the cost of this project.

Major projects this year also include a new feeder line along Veterans Boulevard between Fargo and West Fargo which will provide added reliability and capacity for this growing area. Minnkota Power, CCEC’s power supplier, is also doing upgrades at the Prosper and Reed substations north of West Fargo along with building a new substation (Delvo) in West Fargo. Other projects, like the Cass County Road 4 line relocation pictured on the opposite page, give us the opportunity to improve the system. This project involved moving a three phase power line for road improvements west of Argusville. The road and ditches are being widened and as a result CCEC replaced the older poles with new, stronger ones. Looking to the future SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) is a way of monitoring the system from our power control center. Right now, 31,888 out of 36,394 member accounts are monitored by SCADA. This enables our power control center to control and operate the power distribution system when there are problems, sometimes even without having to dispatch a line crew. Our system has grown, so has the need for reliable power. In 2011, a third transformer was added to the Saunders substation (52nd Avenue South in Fargo) due to growth in the city. Reliability is a core value. It is a big part of what we do, who we are, and how we serve our members.

*Reliability rate is based on an index called ASAI (average service reliability index).

New poles were placed and the three phase line moved in order to widen County Road 4 near Argusville

Since the beginning of Cass County Electric Cooperative, innovation has been a big driver behind many of the biggest changes in the co-op’s history. Of these, wind is one of the greatest. On January 25, 2002 a turbine began operation on a ridge six miles east of Valley City. Another turbine, three miles east of Petersburg became operational on July 12 of the same year. Both turbines produce wind energy for Minnkota Power Cooperative’s Infinity Wind Energy program. Ashtabula Wind Energy Center is located 15 miles northeast of Valley City. It is a 366 MW wind farm developed by Minnkota, NextEra Energy Resources and Otter Tail Power Company. The wind farm has 244 turbines. Langdon Wind Energy Center is nine miles south of Langdon. It is a 199.5 MW farm with 133 wind turbines. CCEC has been a leader in its industry, with wind being a strong part of its innovative history.

Hi, my name is Abby and I had the chance to attend the 2012 Electric Cooperative Youth Tour this summer. The tour consisted of 1,500 kids like me from all around the country. The tour took place in Washington DC and each cooperative sent one high school student to represent their cooperative. It gave the student the opportunity to learn the importance of a cooperative as well as learn more about the political process. I got to travel with kids from North Dakota, Montana and Idaho. It was also fun to meet kids from all over the country. My group got to do a lot on the trip and we were able to learn so much! We were exhausted when it was over, but the experiences we had and the information we learned was so worth it! We got to see where the battle of Gettysburg took place, the Marine Corps Silent Drill, all the monuments and much more. We also spent a day at the Capitol where we met with our North Dakota Congressmen and Senator. We got to ask them questions about situations involving our state and our country. We also asked questions about what a typical day was like for them. I found that they are very busy people. Politics are something I really have an interest in, so it was very inspiring to know what these people did in their life to get to this point. It gave me ideas on how to start following the political path. I was especially excited to talk to some of the interns and learn more about this opportunity. One thing I really enjoyed on the trip was the people I met. It’s amazing what good friends we had become by the end of the trip. Those of us from North Dakota have already formed a Facebook group to keep in touch. It was great to have two chaperones, Arden and Amy on the trip because they came from the area where I live in North Dakota. They were amazing chaperones and they made the trip even better. It’s funny to think that in a state that is somewhat small, you can meet so many amazing people! When we got off the plane at the end of our trip, we did not want to say goodbye! I would have to say that was the hardest part of the entire week. Thank you so much Cass County Electric for giving me the opportunity to go on this trip. I learned so much and was also inspired many times along the way. I enjoyed meeting new people and I know that this trip is one I definitely will never forget! Abby Osowski www.kwh.com
