40 Years of Heating Services – The Wave – November 2023

With winter approaching and the days growing shorter, heating season is in full swing. As we transition, we encourage you to reach out with any questions or anticipated needs with your district heating service this winter. Whether you are having issues with existing equipment, questions about energy use optimization, project ideas to enhance energy efficiency, or simply want to understand more about the service, we encourage you to connect with John Fick, our Senior Account Manager at John.Fick@districtenergy.com. Reliably and cost-effectively maintaining our service to your buildings remain our top priorities, and we are here to provide the guidance and support you need.

Thank you for being a part of our story, and here’s to continuing our tradition of innovation, sustainability, and partnership. Wishing you a wonderful holiday season and a smooth transition into the colder months.

District Energy St. Paul Celebrates 40th Anniversary

This fall District Energy celebrated its 40th year of service. In September 1983, heating service began with the George Latimer Central Library and 79 customers followed over the first three years. Today, District Energy serves more than 80% of downtown Saint Paul with reliable, efficient, and sustainable energy solutions.

To commemorate this achievement, the District Energy team hosted a special anniversary event in September. This gathering brought together community members, customers, stakeholders, and our dedicated team to share stories and reflect on the remarkable journey of the past four decades.

See the anniversary news from Congresswoman Betty McCullum, the Pioneer Press, and Former Mayor George Latimer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Celebrating Four Decades with Four Employees

We are thrilled to celebrate incredible milestones for four team members celebrating 40 years of service in 2023. Ron Anderson, Plant Superintendent, John Skeie, Relief Lead Engineer, Joe Lee, Foreman, and Jeff Amacher, Relief Lead Engineer all celebrated 40 years of service with District Energy this year. Over the years, District Energy has worked to retain and celebrate exceptional talent. These four individuals are a testament to that mission and their work has been instrumental in the evolution of District Energy over the last four decades.

We are proud to share an article published in the Star Tribune that highlights Ron Anderson’s career story and that of his colleagues.

Volunteering with Metro Blooms

Our team joined Metro Blooms to spend a morning planting native plants at a nearby Saint Paul park. Team members worked to remove some invasive weeds and replace them with a variety of native species alongside Metro Blooms experts. This collaboration was in an effort to enhance the park’s natural beauty and biodiversity while also giving back to the community. This joint effort highlighted the importance of preserving local ecosystems for a greener future.
