From KTIV in Sioux City, Iowa:

Before there was MidAmerican Energy in Sioux City, there was Iowa Public Service. And if you’ve been around long enough to remember that you probably remember their Mascot Reddy Kilowatt.

This metal and neon sign used to adorn the I-P-S garage near Interstate 29. The mascot was once used to help teach school kids the dangers of electricity

After being in storage over ten years, Reddy is “Ready” to come to life again, but not without a little cosmetic work first.
