Steamboat Springs, Colo. – September 21, 2026 -- ElektraFi has deployed broadband infrastructure across Routt and Moffat Counties, delivering high-reliability internet to areas that federal and state programs have consistently failed to reach.
Colorado's Middle Mile Program allocated zero funding to two counties with documented connectivity gaps
The Colorado Broadband Office's recent Middle Mile Program awards excluded Routt and Moffat Counties entirely, despite acknowledged service shortfalls in the region.

Network delivers 99.97% uptime through generator and battery backup systems
ElektraFi's backbone incorporates premium generator systems and battery backup to sustain 99.97% uptime in a region where power outages are routine. That redundancy matters for agencies managing public safety operations and water systems, where connectivity failures carry operational risk.
