Working together to meet future energy needs

To ensure abundant, reliable, and affordable energy in the face of increasing demand, five electric utilities have agreed to build a new generating plant on the site of the existing Big Stone Plant near Milbank, South Dakota.
Big Stone II will be a highly efficient, environmentally responsible power plant, approximately 500 to 580 megawatts, coal-based, and designed with advanced emission-control technology. Related transmission upgrades and new construction will deliver the energy.
