(KWNO)-MiEnergy Cooperative is asking members to conserve electricity on Thursday December 4. High demand is expected on the grid due to frigid temperatures. Members can help by lowering their heat to 68 degrees or lower if no one is home, waiting to run the dishwasher or do laundry until the evening, using the oven to cook instead of the microwave and shutting off televisions and gaming systems. People enrolled in the Interruptible Heating and Dual Fuel prorgram will have their heating equipment managed until 11 a.m.
