Description
Operating from headquarters in Kansas City, Missouri, Kansas City Power &
Light has evolved into a full-service energy provider and resource. The
company was founded in 1882 and has become one of the Midwest's most
affordable energy suppliers because of our leadership in fuel procurement,
plant technology and efficient power production and distribution.
KCP&L services nearly 500,000 customers in 24 western Missouri and eastern
Kansas counties - a territory of about 4,600 square miles. Delivering that
power requires 1,700 miles of transmission lines, more than 10,000 miles
of overhead distribution lines, and approximately 3,400 miles of
underground distribution lines.
The Company operates eight stations with 25 generating units providing
power to our customers and selling into the wholesale market. We have over
4,000 megawatts of efficient generation assets in operation or under
construction. Approximately 75 percent of our fuel costs are from lower
cost coal. KCP&L reported revenues of $1.13 billion and core earnings of
$1.94 per GXP share during 2005.
