Join Bakken API and the Minot Area Chamber EDC Energy Committee to hear from featured speaker Tyler Hamman, Vice President of Community Engagement and External Affairs for Base Electron.

Base Electron is planning the Missouri Bend Energy Center, 1,200-megawatt natural gas-fired power generating facility. The facility will provide reliable electricity directly through connection to the MISO grid. This new generation will support industrial development, including the data center campus being constructed near Center, and provide much-needed dispatchable capacity to support grid operations as reliability becomes a growing concern.
