About Us
ITC Great Plains came to Kansas for one key reason: a recognized need from state and federal policymakers for significant transmission investment.
There are two principal goals for Kansas' energy economy. First, the state lost its net energy exporter status in 1999 – Kansas consumes more energy than it can produce, thus it has to buy energy and move it into the state. Second, price disparities exist throughout the state and utilities are limited in their ability to import reasonably priced power or renewable energy. Both challenges can be solved through increased investment in Kansas' transmission system.
We are committed to:
- Helping Kansas become a net exporter of energy
- Providing equal access to all generation resources – including renewable energy
- Enhancing the reliability of the state and regional transmission grid
- Ensuring low-cost energy is available to the Kansas economy to support economic development and attract businesses
ITC Great Plains is a subsidiary of ITC Holdings, Inc., which has an established record investing hundreds of millions of dollars upgrading and improving the transmission system of Michigan. These investments have constructed new transmission lines and improved existing lines – which has resulted in millions of dollars in customer savings.
