Minnesota Municipal Power Agency

MMPA provides electricity to its municipal utility members. They then deliver and sell that electricity to residential and business customers in their communities.

MMPA generates electricity from our plants and also purchases electricity from other generators and from the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO).

MMPA is committed to the development of sustainable energy practices including efficient energy use and generation from sustainable resources. Sustainable energy practices can reduce customers’ bills, improve the environment and help mitigate global climate change.

MMPA supports our members in helping customers conserve energy and by working to control electricity prices. We believe in the power of your hometown.

OVERVIEW

MMPA communities vary in size and location throughout the state of Minnesota, but share a commitment to the power of your hometown. Each MMPA member is a publicly-owned electric utility, which means the city owns its electric distribution system. Together, our members provide electricity to approximately 70,000 residential, commercial, and industrial customers across Minnesota.

Through MMPA membership, each community has a voice in making important decisions affecting their communities’ energy future. Members benefit from MMPA’s collective strength in producing, buying and selling electrical power. MMPA strives to provide reliable, affordable, and sustainable energy to its communities. Each member community benefits through representation on MMPA’s Board of Directors. The board shapes strategy and makes important policy decisions on energy for your hometown.
