Our job is to supply energy. It’s an important job, and we do it with great pride. To meet the growing needs of customers today, Heartland offers a diversified power supply portfolio.

This means if we experience a power shortage at one of our sources, we have alternative resources to ensure the continuation of service at a fair price.


Energy Sources
  • Part of our energy is generated at the Missouri Basin Power Project near Wheatland, Wyoming. This resource consists of the Laramie River Station, one of the most efficient coal-fired turbine stations in the nation, and the Grayrocks Dam and Reservoir on the lower Laramie River.
  • We also have other relationships with key industry suppliers that allow us to buy and sell surplus energy at wholesale prices.
  • The majority of our power is delivered over the Integrated Transmission System, which is owned by Western Area Power Administration, Basin Electric and Heartland and covers a seven state area and consists of over 8,500 miles of lines.
