15 A Key Accounts Perspective Mr. Albert Murphy Superintendent Genoa Central School District Southwest Arkansas Electric A continued supporter of Genoa Central We have grown in programs and facilities. REA has helped meet those energy needs during these growing times. Whether it was extracurricular activities like the athletic fields or classroom expansion, they have helped in the planning and designing to make sure we had adequate resources to meet our needs.
16 Our largest need in the construction and building process is when we built the new High School buildings in 2006 and REA was in the planning and designing of this project from the beginning to meet our energy needs. The pictures below shows the two new transformers that are located on the High School campus that carry the load of all the buildings. We currently have about 64,200 square feet of facilities on the High School Campus with a multitude of HVAC units cooling and heating the buildings 24 hours a day, seven days a week. REA has always been quick to get the school up and going anytime there was an outage that affected the school, in fact there were some switches put in on both sides of the campuses to help reroute the energy to get us up and going faster. Now that is service to the customer. REA has helped keep our campuses secured with security lights in the dark areas. They are very quick to replace any lights that have quit working when called upon. REA was a big help when these classrooms were added in the Summer of We had to move a transformer that was located right behind the elementary building, because that area was going to be part of the new construction. We had to move the transformer to its current location and also get a larger one as well, shown in the picture above. All of this was completed on time without any delay in the construction of the building.
17 Key points for Summary The COOP was/is very helpful: after the ice storm to make sure school started as soon as possible. in planning and designing our educational energy needs during our construction times. to make sure we had service as fast as possible when storms and other outages did occur. to install switches on both sides of our campuses to make sure our school district had as little down time as possible in order to reroute when an outage does occur. customer friendly and cooperative in every way in order to meet the consumer s s needs Cooperative Survey Results Tim Sullivan Director of Commercial and Industrial Business Development Touchstone Energy Cooperatives Brand Tools for Key Accounts Cooperative Difference Survey Business section of the Best Practices Knowledgebase Net Conference Key Accounts Events Key Accounts Training Key Accounts Web Resources National Energy Customer Outreach Key Accounts Support
