2023 NIPCO Annual Meeting

NIPCO's 2023 Annual Meeting was conducted on Tuesday, April 11, 2023, at the Stoney Creek Hotel Rivers Bend Conference Center in Sioux City, Iowa. 

 

"Wired to Serve" was this year's theme for NIPCO's 2023 Annual Meeting as 2022 operations provided a springboard for NIPCO’s future of service. With a vision for shaping service that will meet the needs of the next generation of cooperative membership, the NIPCO staff and directors undertook a strategic planning deep dive, continued its efforts to upgrade and replace infrastructure that is fifty years old or more, launched its innovative battery storage project, and introduced an electric vehicle into its transportation fleet.
