Project Overview

The smart grid is a utility network that utilizes current technologies to help reduce energy delivery costs and area power outages. It will also help strengthen the nation's power grid.

This multi-year project will benefit all customers as KCP&L applies what is learned to design the blueprint for the "utility of the future."

KCP&L SmartGrid is located in several of Kansas City’s urban neighborhoods in and around the Green Impact Zone. The Green Impact Zone is a cooperative effort to focus federal stimulus funds on projects in a targeted area of Kansas City, Mo. To learn more about the Green Impact Zone click here.
