Energy Park

Southern Public Power District owns 670 acres in the former Cornhusker Army Ammunition Plant located 2 miles west of Grand Island in South Central Nebraska. All 670 acres are available for development, or broken down into smaller parcels. Production at this plant ceased over 25 years ago and the property has been returned to private use.

Southern’s vision is to develop this area with companies that have significant electricity requirements. Development in this manner is consistent with our core values of selling electricity and maintaining low operating costs per unit of sales. Some of the advantages this land has for potential industries include:

  • Rail access from both Burlington Northern Santa Fe and Union Pacific
  • Local onsite rail car company that can provide locomotive service for car movement.
  • Truck traffic is easily handled at this site.
  • Multiple access roads
  • Reasonable land prices
  • Large sites available (up to 300 acres)
  • Natural gas, electricity and water service available at competitive prices.

For more information about Energy Park property, please contact:

Clothes dryers make up a large portion of your appliance energy consumption. Clean the lint filter after each cycle, & scrub the filter with a toothbrush once a month to remove film and increase air circulation. More tips: https://t.co/aHbp6wpR1r
