“Bike Shop.”

Written on May 10th, 2011 | Posted by RIESTER

What setting could be better than a bike shop to help Pacific Power and Rocky Mountain Power remind customers of the importance of renewable energy and energy efficiency programs?

Biking is about being outdoors and exercising. When we get on a bike, we are stepping out of the controlled and energy intensive environments where so many of us spend so much time.

Rocky Mountain Power and Clark Planetarium work to highlight the importance of science education.

Written on March 21st, 2011 | Posted by RIESTER

America’s leadership in technology and innovation boosted the nation’s position as a world leader after World War II. Today the U.S. remains a leader, however, many trends provide cause for alarm—including the low performance of Americans in math and science compared to other nations.

Many of our clients are actively engaged on this issue.

Rocky Mountain Power recently supported a conference called “Expanding Your Horizons,” which hosted 300 girls for a day to encourage them to pursue careers in math and science. Read more at Rocky Mountain Power’s website.

This coming Saturday (March 26) Clark Planetarium in Salt Lake City is hosting veteran astronaut Kent Roiminger who will discuss his experiences in space before a special showing of Hubble 3D. If you’re in Utah, and especially if you have children, you will not want to miss this event. Visit Clark Planetarium’s website for more information.

Watch this video to learn more about why science education is important to our future:

RIESTER client Rocky Mountain Power helps the Sundance Film Festival lower its carbon footprint.

Written on February 2nd, 2011 | Posted by Laura Carlson

Rocky Mountain Power reminds us why we love our clients!

Through the Blue Sky renewable energy program, Rocky Mountain Power powered the entire Sundance Film Festival with clean, renewable energy.

Rocky Mountain Power allowed Sundance to operate on clean, renewable energy.

Rocky Mountain Power helped Sundance operate on clean, renewable energy.

The program allowed Sundance to avoid 144 tons of carbon dioxide emissions, equivalent to taking 25 cars off the road for a year or protecting one acre of trees from deforestation.

“We are proud to be an in-kind supporter of the largest independent cinema festival in the United States, helping to reduce its environmental impact because of our Blue Sky customers,” said Lori Hansen, Rocky Mountain Power customer and community manager.

Many of us at RIESTER enjoyed Sundance again this year. Knowing that Rocky Mountain Power is working to reduce the carbon footprint of this large event is an extra bonus. It gives meaning and purpose to the work we do every day, including all that we do to help Rocky Mountain Power communicate to its customers.

Learn more about Rocky Mountain Power’s innovative Blue Sky program, which provides a way for customers to support wind-powered electric generation and other renewable energy facilities.
