Energy Safety
Safety is a prime concern
at Midwest Energy. In 1994, our line crews constructed a high voltage safety trailer
to assist in demonstrating electrical safety. To date, this program has been presented
to 20,000 Midwest Energy customers, as well as others.
This animation shows a 7,200 volt arc being struck on our stick dummy's head. This
is but a small part of the entire safety program we currently offer.
If your school, civic organization, first- responder team or other group is interested

Natural gas safety has always been a major concern for Midwest
Energy, Inc. This energy has several characteristics that make it safe when
used properly, and dangerous when used improperly. Natural gas is colorless,
odorless (until we add an odorant), lighter than air and flammable. We currently
offer safety training programs to schools or other groups interested in learning
about natural gas safety. Brian Dreiling (pictured) ignites a "natural
gas bubble" during one of his demonstrations.

Electric Energy Conservation is another area where Midwest
Energy likes to share our expertise. We have several displays which show how electricity
is generated, how to better utilize electricity, and methods of conserving electricity
through the use of high efficient lighting and appliances.
