Students learn about electrical technician roles

Great River Energy recently had the privilege of hosting students from Anoka Hennepin School District at its Elk River campus. The group of 45 high school students learned about various electrical technician roles at Great River Energy, toured the Elk River Substation, performed hands on substation apparatus activities and rode in a bucket truck.

“We are excited about the next generation of energy employees,” said Great River Energy’s Melissa Phillips, manager of field services. “We were happy to show these students about the kind of jobs we have available at Great River Energy and how important these careers are to our communities.”
