(Sutherland, Nebraska, August 12, 2025) –The Sutherland Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the Nebraska Public Power District, is excited to invite the public to an Open House on Monday, August 18, from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. at the Village Office to learn about Nebraska Public Power District’s (NPPD) groundbreaking plan for modular nuclear power plants.
Sutherland was recognized as one of the 16 communities best suited to site a next generation nuclear reactor after phase one of a state funded feasibility study. The study is currently in phase two which includes a more in-depth technical evaluation,
that will narrow the list down to two to four sites.
Representatives from NPPD and nuclear industry experts will be on hand to explain the technology, answer questions, and share insights from other communities that have already hosted informational sessions. The Chamber will provide light refreshments for attendees.
“This is an incredible opportunity for Sutherland to be at the forefront of the next generation of clean energy,” said Chamber President Kaye Monie. “We want our residents to hear the facts, ask questions, and be part of shaping our community’s future.”
