Energy news from Omaha Public Power District
WHAT IS IT?
The total length of electric power lines, more than enough to stretch from Omaha, Neb., around the earth and back at our higher latitude.
These transmission and distribution lines take power from the power stations to homes and businesses across the OPPD’s 5,000-square mile service area.
The lines are also interconnected with the nation’s power grid to ensure a stable, reliable supply of power for hundreds of millions Americans.
REACHING BIG HEIGHTS
The First National Bank Tower is Nebraska’s tallest building, stretching 634 feet high. If you stacked 129,643 of those towers on top of one another, it would stretch as far as our electric lines.
Paula Lukowski has more than 34 years of corporate communications experience. By far, her favorite aspect of that role has been profiling the great work done by OPPD employees and retirees. A master gardener, Paula and her husband Mark have two grown children and two grandsons.
