OUR MISSION IS OUR MEMBERS
ABOUT US
When investor-owned utilities bypassed the nation’s rural areas because of sparse population, citizens eventually took matters into their own hands. Inland Power was organized in 1937 by some of these spirited forerunners who were dedicated to getting farm folks “to see the light.” On April 27, 1938, 160 farms northeast of Spokane were the first Inland members to receive power from the cooperative.
​
Today, Inland Power is the largest electric cooperative in the state and continues to grow with approximately 46,000 meters. We serve 13 counties in eastern Washington and northern Idaho.

What is Fire Safety Mode?
Fire Safety Mode represents an alternative operational strategy for our electrical distribution system, prioritizing system security and public safety over regular operations, which may lead to increased service interruptions. Under normal circumstances, when an external object, like a tree branch, contacts our power lines, our devices detect the short circuit, briefly interrupt power, and then try to automatically restore it. If the obstruction is cleared, power is reestablished quickly, resulting in only a minor service interruption.
However, in Fire Safety Mode, this automatic restoration functionality is turned off (non-reclose) in areas identified as having a higher wildfire risk. Consequently, service disruptions that would typically be momentary will instead be prolonged, necessitating a crew to manually inspect and restore power. Fire Safety Mode is currently scheduled to commence around June 1, 2025; however, this date may change depending on weather conditions. Once initiated, fire safety mode will remain active throughout the dry season and will only be deactivated when burn bans are lifted and cooler weather returns.
Inland Power Introduces Fire Safety Mode Levels
With fire season approaching, we are launching our new 4-step level system for Fire Safety Mode settings and communication to our members. As conditions evolve throughout the season, our Fire Safety Mode levels will be updated accordingly. Members can check the current level for their location by visiting our website at inlandpower.com. We also invite our members to follow us on Facebook, Instagram, or X for social media updates
