We’re Team Ready and we’re here to get your home ready

Stay safe, be prepared and save energy.

Hi! We’re Mike and Maria, also known as Team Ready, and we’re here on behalf of Black Hills Energy to empower you with helpful tips to use around your house.

We know that home is where your heart is. And when it comes to being safe, being prepared and making your home as energy efficient as possible, you’re not alone.

We’re here to help with hot tips to beat the heat in the summer, ways to stay warm in the winter and energy-saving tips for every season in between. Whether you’re looking to caulk your windows or change your filter, save energy or stay safe, we’re your know-how go-tos.

We’ve put together an extensive resource center to help you help your home. So, what can we do for you today?
