This loan funds 35 miles of new electric lines, improving 12 miles of line, and other system improvements—including $439,278 in smart grid technologies. Cooperative Light and Power Association of Lake County serves more than 6,000 residential and commercial consumers in the Arrowhead region in Minnesota. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-06-27T23:10:16Z |
