Altogether there are more than 16,500 meters powered by the cooperative. Verendrye is headquartered in Velva, has a full service center in Minot and outposts in Harvey and at the Minot Air Force Base. If you receive power from Verendrye Electric, it means you are a member-owner of the cooperative. You get to vote for local people to serve on the cooperative’s board of directors and the non-profit cooperative returns money to its members in the form of capital credits. We pride ourselves on providing friendly, local customer service. You are welcome to visit our Velva or Minot locations where you can learn about the services we provide, set up new service or pay your bill. You can also call us at 1-800-472-2141 or 701-852-0406.

If you see a worker in an older white pickup looking at pad mounted transformers that is a contractor we hired to paint them. He will be in Minot for several weeks. This is part of regular maintenance to prevent rust.

We had a very scary near miss yesterday. A man hit an overhead power line with a combine. His neighbor reported seeing him removing the line from the combine with his hands! This was not a good decision! Always assume a power line is energized and don't ever touch it. Here's a short video on what to do if your machinery comes into contact with a power line.
