Tri-State Generation and Transmission
Like most major power suppliers, Tri-State must focus on both the present and future power requirements of its member systems. The association has added new energy resources to its generation mix during the past year, with more under construction. The G&T is well positioned to maintain a comparatively low-cost, reliable supply of electricity to its members for the foreseeable future. Tri-State?s owned and contracted mix of electric energy is derived from coal, natural gas and oil-fired and combustion turbine generation facilities located throughout its four-state member service territory. In addition, the association purchases federal hydropower from the Western Area Power Administration, accounting for a substantial portion of the energy Tri-State sells to its 44 member systems.
Tri-State also purchases small amounts of energy from renewable energy sources such as wind and landfill gas projects.
