Minnesota Power
Minnesota Power was founded in 1906 in the city of Duluth, Minnesota. The company proudly serves 137,000 electric customers in Northeastern Minnesota and Northern Wisconsin. The company was born through the acquisition of several hydroelectric companies. At that time, their forefathers also began constructing Thomson Station on the St. Louis River near Duluth, still the largest hydro facility in the state.
At present, they bring clean, reliable energy to residential, commercial, and industrial customers throughout central and northern Minnesota. They are equally committed to preserving their natural environment, helping create and preserve jobs in their region and giving back to communities they serve and continuously pursuing new and advanced energy technologies because they want their next century to be even better than their first.
The company has many activities planned for the year, including participation in community events, public tours of their facilities, publication of a new history book and many more. They will keep you abreast of these events and hope you will help them commemorate this historic milestone. They also hope you enjoy learning more about Minnesota Power’s history.
Minnesota Power’s electric rates are among the lowest in the United States. According to the most recent statistics from the Edison Electric Institute, Minnesota Power’s average retail rates are the lowest in the state, lowest in the region and eighth lowest of 177 utilities in the U.S. Minnesota Power has an annual net peak load of approximately 1,500 megawatts. Its primary generating stations are the Boswell Energy Center in Cohasset, the Laskin Energy Center in Hoyt Lakes and the Taconite Harbor Energy Center in Schroeder, all of which are powered by low sulfur, sub bituminous coal from the Powder River Basin in Montana. These plants are supplemented by ten hydroelectric generators in their territory and power purchases, the largest of which comes from the square butte cooperative in North Dakota.
Their commitment to excellent quality of service and competitive pricing has been the key to their success.
