Demolition of Holland BPW’s retired James De Young (JDY) power plant is underway. 

Through a partnership with the Michigan Public Power Agency (MPPA), we have power purchase agreements for renewable energy from several large solar arrays in Michigan.

The services we provide are essential to the foundation of our community and you need to be able to count on them. How do we measure reliability? In the electric utility, we track performance using industry standards, such as SAIFI and SAIDI, which allow us to benchmark ourselves with other electric providers.

Holland BPW generates, transmits and distributes electricity to approximately 30,000 customers within the City of Holland, Park Township, Holland Township, Laketown Township and Fillmore Township.

Holland Energy Park™ grounds feature paved walking trails that will be integrated into the Macatawa Greenway system. 

During optimal conditions, Holland Energy Park boasts nearly 60% thermal efficiency in the production of power and heat for the community. 

Why Build a New Plant? The direction for creating the Holland Energy Park™ came directly from our community.
