At Wheat Belt Public Power District, our vision statement, “Powering our customers’ lives”, is more than just words. It’s the heart of everything we do, especially for our irrigation customers who keep Nebraska’s fields thriving.
Powering More Than Pumps
For many in our service territory, irrigation is more than a job, it’s a way of life. The hum of a pivot in motion signals more than electricity at work; it represents growth, family livelihoods, and the backbone of local economies. Each season, our team takes pride in delivering reliable power that keeps these systems running efficiently, helping farmers make the most of every drop of water and every acre of land.
Reliability When It Matters Most
When summer heat bears down and every minute of pumping counts, dependability matters. Wheat Belt’s crews work around the clock to ensure our system remains strong and responsive. From preventative maintenance on lines and substations to quick restoration efforts during storms, our commitment to reliability helps our customers focus on their operations, not on whether the power will hold.
Efficiency and Innovation in the Field
Powering our customers’ lives also means helping them do more with less. Through programs that promote energy efficiency, load management, and technology upgrades, we partner with irrigators to lower operating costs and increase productivity. Whether it’s rebates for irrigation motors, pivot monitoring systems, or participating in our irrigation time-of-use program, we’re always looking for ways to help customers save energy and dollars.
A Partnership Rooted in Community
From one end of our district to the other, Wheat Belt’s team is part of the same rural communities we serve. We understand that when our customers succeed, our region thrives. Every kilowatt we deliver to a well, a barn, or a home contributes to the strength and sustainability of western Nebraska.
Powering the Future Together
“Powering our customers’ lives” means standing beside our irrigation customers season after season with dependable service, innovative solutions, and a shared commitment to growth. Whether you’re watering corn outside Bridgeport or tending to sunflowers near Big Springs, Wheat Belt is proud to provide the power that keeps your operation and our communities growing strong.
