Holcomb Station Expansion Project

In August 2005, Sunflower and Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association announced an agreement that would result in the construction of two new coal-fired power plants at Holcomb. On May 4, 2009, a compromise was struck between Sunflower and the State of Kansas that will allow one 895 mw coal plant to be constructed.

Sunflower has made available the results of an economic impact study that describes the short and long-term benefits that would have resulted from the construction of the original plants. For more information concerning the compromise, visit the Holcomb Expansion website.
