Tours and Speakers
As part of our involvement in the community, we offer tours at
Holcomb Station and speaker programs to provide you with a better
understanding of the importance of electricity.
Take a Tour Through Holcomb Station
Holcomb Station is a man-made marvel located in western Kansas. The
71,000-square-foot main building climbs 232 feet above the gently
rolling plains, and the boiler chimney soars to a breathtaking 474 feet.
The imposing presence of Holcomb Station dominates the horizon for
miles in every direction.
You can do more than just look at the station from a distance.
Visitors, including students, civic organizations, families and other
interested groups or individuals, may schedule a tour of the
360-megawatt, coal-fired generating station. To schedule a tour, call
Pioneer Electric at (620) 356-1211 or 1-800-794-9302.

Electricity plays a vital role in our modern world, creating jobs and
significantly enhancing quality of life. At Pioneer Electric, we know
how important electricity is. Our employees want to help your group
learn more about the production of electricity, safety, environmental
issues and related subjects. We can tailor a presentation to suit your

Let us tell you the story of electricity, from the coal mines of the
Powder River Basin of Wyoming to the generating facility at Holcomb
Station, through the power lines into your homes and businesses. For
