Generation
Tenaska Generation is an industry leader with unmatched performance and a proven history of safety and operational excellence. Our managed fleet consists of more than 7,700 megawatts (MW) of generation at 18 facilities in 10 states, supported by natural gas, wind and solar power production.
As a physical asset owner, we have decades of experience in managing the ever-changing energy landscape. Our team has extensive knowledge in strategic planning, commercial optimization, plant operations, technical services, engineering, risk management and financial structuring.
The efficiency of our operations is unparalleled. Our engineering expertise underpins our ability to reliably provide energy when the market needs it the most.
We are committed to ensuring our assets are high performing and safe. Year after year our fleet is recognized for going beyond what’s expected, evident in our participation in the U.S. Department of Labor Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) Voluntary Protection Program (VPP) and the National Safety Council (NSC).
More than 73% of our fleet has achieved and maintains VPP Star status, and many of our natural gas power generating facilities receive annual awards and recognitions from the NSC for safe and responsible operations.

Community investment
Tenaska strives to make a positive impact. We take our corporate citizenship seriously and hold ourselves accountable to support and strengthen the communities where our facilities are located. We take the time to build relationships and work diligently to understand local interests and needs.
In addition to the significant tax revenue and other economic benefits our facilities provide, we share our success with the communities where we live and work by supporting local schools and students through Tenaska Scholarship programs. We also provide essential resources to local first responders, volunteer and are actively engaged in our communities.
