Wolf Creek Nuclear Generating Station

About Wolf Creek

As Kansas' lone nuclear power generating station, Wolf Creek Nuclear Generating Station has been safely providing clean, reliable energy to Kansans and Missourians since 1985.

Wolf Creek provides electric generation for Evergy, and generates about 1,200 megawatts of electricity, which is enough energy to power more than 800,000 homes. Wolf Creek generates 20.7 percent of Kansas' electricity, and 36 percent of its emissions-free electricity.

Located near Burlington, Kansas, the Wolf Creek site is about 10,500 acres, and 1,500 acres of company land are reserved and managed for wildlife. Wolf Creek employs approximately 750 employees, many of whom have worked at the site since the plant began providing electricity to the nation's power grid more than three decades ago.
