Economic Development and Energy Efficiency Loans

Lake Country Power and Great River Energy desire to see business growth in northern Minnesota. Together, we've designed a website to help you get started with your business objectives.

Energy Efficiency Loans

The Neighborhood Energy Connection has partnered with the Minnesota Housing Financing Agency to bring Minnesotans a new way to finance energy improvements to their homes. It's called the Minnesota Energy Loan.

The loans will be made through the Fix-Up Fund, a statewide program that offers affordable, low-interest fixed-rate loans for homeowners seeking cost-effective and energy-efficient improvements. You may also visit the Center for Energy and Environment for more information about the Minnesota Energy Loan program.

After doing an energy audit on their home, interested homeowners can then apply for the loans directly through a Fix-Up Fund lender. Lake Country Power has organized a local lender list of lenders within the co-op's service area, or you may visit the Minnesota Housing Financing Agency site.
