As we welcome 2026, we reflect on 2025, a year filled with new opportunities, exciting developments, and a few challenges along the way.
The good news is that Nebraska continues to attract interest from companies looking to grow—and that means more jobs, investment and momentum for our communities.
To support this growth, NPPD is actively planning for future energy needs. We’re expanding our generation resources to complement our existing fleet—ensuring we remain the affordable, reliable and resilient energy provider you can count on.
In line with these efforts, NPPD’s board of directors approved a 3% retail rate adjustment for 2026, helping us continue to invest in the infrastructure and innovation needed to power Nebraska’s future.
Another highlight from this year: The final 2024 Energy Information Administration (EIA) rankings are in, and NPPD’s retail rates placed us in the top 6.5% of lowest-cost providers nationwide. Even better, Nebraska now ranks third in the nation for lowest residential electric rates, a testament to the strength of public power.
From business expansions to community events, it’s gratifying to be part of the progress happening across our state. Wherever we go, our message stays the same: Public Power works for Nebraska.
Wishing you a prosperous 2026!
