Powering Statesville: Honoring Our Lineworkers
April is a special time to recognize the people who keep our community running strong. With North Carolina Lineworker Appreciation Day on April 13 and National Lineworker Appreciation Day on April 18, Statesville Public Power proudly celebrates the skilled professionals who power our everyday lives.
Lineworkers are the backbone of our electric system. They work in all conditions - through storms, heat, and long nights - to ensure homes stay lit, businesses stay open, and essential services continue without interruption. Their work is often behind the scenes, but its impact is felt in every corner of our community.

Thank You Lineworkers
Statesville has a long and proud history of Public Power, built on a commitment to reliability, local service, and community connection.

Being a public power community means our focus is always local. Our lineworkers don’t just work here - they live here, raise their families here, and take pride in serving their neighbors. Their dedication helps ensure that Statesville remains a place where people and businesses can thrive.
This April, we invite you to join us in saying “thank you” to the lineworkers of Statesville Public Power. Their hard work, skill, and commitment keep our community powered - today and for generations to come.
