Evolving Fuel Mix
Hendricks Power’s power supplier, Wabash Valley Power Alliance, has made a commitment over the past decade to dramatically change how electricity is generated for its 23 member electric cooperatives and the 35,000 member-owners of our co-op. Advances in technology have made sustainable energy sources like wind and solar power good for the environment and more affordable.
"You may not realize it, but Hendricks Power does not generate electricity. The co-op purchases power from a generation and transmission cooperative, Wabash Valley Power, and from there, we distribute it to homes and businesses throughout our community." Says Greg Ternet, Hendricks Power Cooperative CEO. "Through Wabash Valley Power we are increasingly using more electricity generated from renewable energy sources, but still depend on a diverse energy mix to ensure reliable power that is available to our members whenever they need it, at an affordable price."
