Are you planning to expand production and looking for a site with real economic benefits? Great River Energy is seeking a long-term partner to purchase steam energy from the Spiritwood Station power plant, located near Jamestown, N.D. Steam is available at prices below market rates and reliable enough to replace your own packaged boilers to power your operations.

Spiritwood Station is a combined heat and power plant located just 10 miles east of Jamestown, ND. In addition to generating up to 99 megawatts of electricity, the plant produces approximately 555,000 pounds of steam per hour that is available for use by an interested agricultural or industrial enterprise.

Scheduled to come online in 2010, we can offer nominally 355,000 PPH of 150 PSIG saturated steam 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Spiritwood Station also provides 100 percent backup on steam supply using alternate fuel and equipment.

Spiritwood Station has excellent access right off BNSF mainline railroad and is located just three miles north of Interstate Highway 94.

Spiritwood Station will provide energy that is:

Low Cost
Spiritwood Station qualifies for millions in economic development incentives and convenient access to long-term, low-cost energy rates.
