Today, Mid-State Electric Corp generated 3.3 Kilowatt-hours of electricity. From fossil-fueled sources, this amount of electricity would have emitted 4.6 lbs of CO2 into the atmosphere.

This could power:

  • An electric toothbrush for 13 weeks
  • A 42" plasma-screen television for 6 hours
  • A typical video game system for 6 days

Midstate Electric Coop’s new administration building, completed in September of 2005, is the first LEED® certified building in Central Oregon and the first LEED certified electric cooperative in the world. Buildings seeking LEED certification are evaluated in six categories: Sustainable Sites, Water Efficiency, Energy & Atmosphere, Materials & Resources, Indoor Environmental Quality, and Innovation & Design.
The 7 kW photovoltaic array that sits atop the building’s parking structure is expected to supply 12% of the annual energy consumed on-site. Midstate will purchase wind energy to provide the remaining 88% of the required electricity.
