Prairie State’s fundamental purpose is to supply our owners with a reliable, low-cost and stable source of electric power that is produced in a safe and environmentally responsible manner.
Prairie State’s power is owned by its nine member owners. The power plant’s power is scheduled for transmission by the Midwest Independent System Operator, Inc. (MISO), a not-for-profit, member-based organization administering wholesale electricity markets. Power from the Prairie State Energy Campus is used by its nine owners to serve their consumer-members.

YES.

THE FUTURE OF ENERGY IS HERE.

While some cynics have tried to embellish and misrepresent some of the challenges we have faced over the past five years, the fact is the Prairie State Energy Campus is and will be a safe, reliable, cost effective, and environmentally responsible source of base loaded electrical energy for its Owners’ consumer-members for decades to come.

Prairie State and its owners are at a precipice. Since the early 2000s, we have been talking about building a better way forward for coal and a fundamental new way of looking at power. We built it. Now the challenge is, as our 2013 theme states, to show it. It is my honor to present Prairie State Generating Company’s first annual report.
