Member-owned wholesale power generation cooperative

Overview

Wabash Valley Power Alliance is a member-owned wholesale generation and transmission cooperative, headquartered in Indianapolis, that supplies power to 21 member distribution cooperatives across multiple states.

Beyond generation, it offers members energy management services, rebate and efficiency incentive programs, and rate structures aimed at economic development in sectors such as agribusiness, manufacturing, logistics, and biomedical.
