Leaders of Nebraska's public power industry formed the Nebraska Power Association (NPA) in 1980 to address industry-wide concerns and interests. This voluntary organization represents all segments of the power industry: municipalities, public power districts, public power and irrigation districts, and cooperatives engaged in generation, transmission or distribution of electric energy in the state.
It is the policy of the State of Nebraska to provide its citizens with adequate, reliable and low-cost electric service, consistent with sound business practices. The agencies responsible for providing electric service to citizens of the state work through NPA to implement this policy.
