Wyoming's Massive Energy Consumption Drives $24 Billion in Power Projects

SUGAR LAND--September 7, 2018-Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Wyoming only narrowly trailed Louisiana in energy consumption per capita in 2016, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). While this statistic is largely due to an industrial sector that is as large as the population is small, the Equality State boasts some of the nation's most fertile ground for transmission and wind-energy projects. Industrial Info is tracking nearly $24 billion in active Power Industry projects in Wyoming, the bulk of which is attributed to Carbon County, which borders Colorado.

Within this article: Details on some of the highest-valued active projects in Wyoming's Power Industry, including those from major companies such as PacifiCorp, Idacorp Incorporated, Invenergy LLC, Enyo Renewable Energy and Basin Electric Power Cooperative.
