Minnesota Coops Participate in Indoor Food Production Research Initiative
Todd-Wadena Electric Cooperative (“TWEC”), a distribution electric cooperative in Minnesota, and Great River Energy, TWEC’s generation and transmission electric cooperative in Minnesota, are each collaborating with the Electricity Power Research Institute on a two-year study to provide valuable data on the electric load requirements for indoor food production containers. As part of this study, TWEC is providing electricity to a shipping container designed to produce sustainable crops for distribution within TWEC’s service territory.
