Energy City Tours

  
Elk River City officials were proud to host top executives from the Russian Far East as they toured several Energy City demonstration sites in 2002. The U.S. Dept. of Commerce's Special American Business Internship Training (SABIT) Program made this possible.

Countless Energy City tours have been provided over the years. Energy City staff and partners will work with you to custom design your tour, whether you prefer to visit many demonstration sites or just one. Below are some examples of tour groups that have visited certain demonstration sites.
