Dairyland Power Cooperative (Dairyland) is an American energy company formed in December 1941 by the merging of two of the nation's earliest generation and transmission cooperatives: Wisconsin Power Cooperative and Tri-State Cooperative. Headquartered in La Crosse, Wis., Dairyland provides the wholesale electrical requirements for 24 distribution cooperatives and 27 municipal utilities in a four-state service area ( Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois).

According to the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association, electric cooperatives serve 56 percent of the U.S. landmass, which includes 42 million people. ^[1] Electric cooperatives are not-for-profit organizations and returned more than $1.4 billion in capital credits to their members in 2021. ^[1]

Generation resources

Dairyland Power Cooperative provides its members and power supply customers with electricity via generation resources that it owns and operates, including: hydroelectric, natural gas, coal, landfill gas wind and solar generation. Dairyland sells all the electricity it generates and purchases all of its electricity needs from the Midcontinent Independent System Operator - one of nine regional transmission/independent system operators in North America.

Dairyland is exploring small modular nuclear reactors (SMR) ^[2], pumped hydro storage ^[3] and long-term energy (battery) storage technologies for future electricity generation. ^[4]
