Dear Valued Customers,

I am honored to serve as the General Manager of our esteemed organization. Our commitment to providing you with affordable, dependable and sustainable electric service remains steadfast, especially with warm weather months approaching and Florida's storm season on the horizon.

During the hot Florida summers, electricity usage increases as cooling systems work harder to keep our homes and businesses comfortable. Therefore, I encourage you to take advantage of our energy efficiency tips and programs designed to help you manage your energy consumption and keep your bills as low as possible during these months. Simple adjustments can make a noticeable difference, such as setting your thermostat to a comfortable yet energy-efficient temperature and ensuring your cooling systems are well-maintained.

Florida's storm season brings a unique set of challenges. At Lakeland Electric, we have been working diligently to strengthen our infrastructure and implement strategic improvements to enhance our resilience against severe weather. Our teams are trained and prepared to respond quickly and safely to outages.

Here are a few steps you can take to prepare for the storm season:

• Ensure your contact information is up-to-date in our system so that you receive important updates and notifications.
• Familiarize yourself with our outage map on our website.
• Prepare an emergency kit that includes essential items such as flashlights, batteries, a first-aid kit, and water.

Your trust in us fuels our determination to provide the level of service you expect and deserve. Thank you for allowing us to serve you. Together, we can navigate the hot weather and storm season with preparedness and resilience. Here's to a safe and comfortable summer for all.

Sincerely,


Mike Beckham
General Manager
