The Omaha Public Power District continues to expand its electrical power generation capacities to keep up with current and future growth. By the end of the decade, OPPD plans to add more than 3000 megawatts in additional generation while diversifying its energy portfolio. Earlier this summer, OPPD announced that the new Turtle Creek Station was officially operational. Located near 168th & Fairview Road in Sarpy County, the station currently has two dual-fuel combustion turbines, with a combined output of 450 megawatts. OPPD is adding a third turbine which is expected to be completed in 2027. – Isaiah Ang
