Flathead Electric and Snohomish PUD win the 2012 Award for Excellence in Energy Efficiency -
BPA is proud to announce that Snohomish PUD and Flathead Electric are co-recipients of the 2012 Award for Excellence in Energy Efficiency. We received a number of exceptional nominations for the 2012 Award for Excellence in Energy Efficiency. Each of the nominees truly demonstrated their excellence, and each highlighted the amazing efficiency work going on in the region. Given the quality of the nominations we received choosing a winner was extremely difficult, but in the end two of the nominees distinguished themselves from the rest. The judging panel could not meaningfully elevate one over the other, so BPA choose to honor Flathead and Snohomish as co-recipients.

Congratulations to Flathead Electric and Snohomish PUD for the exceptional work they have done!
