The mission of the Great Plains Institute is to transform the way we produce, distribute, and consume energy to be both environmentally and economically sustainable.

Through research and analysis, consensus policy development, technology acceleration, and local action, we are leading the transition to clean, efficient, and secure energy.

The Great Plains Institute was started by a small group of people who asked, "What if there was a place where people with different opinions about how to provide clean, secure energy for generations could come together and create common solutions?" Since then, GPI has grown from a small group of individuals to a team of experts working with our expanding local, national, and international network.
