About Great Plains Energy Corridor
The Great Plains Energy Corridor operates from Bismarck, North Dakota, where it was established in 2008 as a division of Bismarck State College. The initiative was launched through the efforts of former U.S. Senator Byron Dorgan with a mandate to develop innovative approaches that connect stakeholders and advance the state's diverse energy resources. Instead, it provides information, education, outreach programs, and special events on topics ranging from enhanced geothermal systems and renewable fuels to sustainable development and energy transmission and storage technologies. It leverages Bismarck State College's nationally recognized energy education programs, which deliver state-of-the-art training to current and future industry employees. The office is housed in the National Energy Center of Excellence (NECE) building on the college campus, a facility dedicated in September 2008 that incorporates a ground-source geothermal heat pump system, LEED-specification lighting, a total energy heat recovery system, and Flexcrete — a construction material made with fly ash from coal combustion. The organization serves partners across government, education, and the private sector, helping to secure federal funds and other resources for energy-related projects that benefit North Dakota. Its audience includes energy industry employers, policy makers, educators, and students pursuing energy technology careers. The Corridor also produces an annual report highlighting North Dakota energy industry statistics and hosts the EmPowerND Energy Conference, though the Fall 2023 edition was canceled. The Corridor was created specifically to foster collaboration that accelerates energy development in North Dakota, positioning the state as a vibrant and innovative energy hub. Its differentiation lies in its direct integration with a college energy curriculum, its physical presence in a high-efficiency demonstration building, and its role as a conduit for federal energy funding into regional projects.
