Kansas-based KPP Energy is celebrating its 20th anniversary as a municipal energy agency in 2025.
“Over the past two decades, KPP Energy has been dedicated to providing affordable and reliable electric service to its member communities. This milestone is a testament to the agency and its members’ commitment to excellence and innovation in the energy sector,” it said in the January issue of its Lightning Round newsletter.
KPP was first organized under Kansas municipal energy agency statutes in 2005. On January 18, 2005, the original operating agreement “to secure, by joint action among themselves, or by contract with other utilities, an adequate, reliable and economical supply of electric power and energy” was formalized.
In the beginning, KPP was made up of six founding members – Augusta, Burlington, Clay Center, Neodesha, Wellington and Winfield.
Since that time, KPP Energy – originally formed as the Kansas Power Pool – has undergone significant development, the newsletter noted.
The agency now provides electricity to 24 communities across the state.
“As KPP Energy celebrates this important milestone, it remains committed to its mission of providing reliable, affordable, and sustainable energy solutions to its member communities,” it said.
“The 20th anniversary is not just a celebration of the past but a stepping stone towards a brighter and more sustainable future. We look forward to serving the member communities of KPP for the next 20 years and beyond,” KPP Energy said.
