Coal Creek Tours
Learning About Lignite First Hand

Each year, we sponsor two bus tours to Coal Creek Station, located about 50 miles north of Bismarck, North Dakota, near Underwood. This is one of the world's largest and cleanest lignite coal-fired power plants and it's where we buy most of our power. Coal Creek Station uses about 22,000 tons of lignite per day. The highlight of this three-day trip is the tour of Coal Creek Station and Falkirk Mine - supplier of the lignite coal.


Price includes:
  • Two-night accommodations at the Ramkota Bismarck
  • Roundtrip bus transportation
  • Refreshments for the bus ride
  • Historic tour at Fort Abraham Lincoln, Custer House and dinner
  • Tour day lunch - compliments of Great River Energy
  • $260 per couple/double occupancy, $190 per person/single occupancy
