The National Hydropower Association has recognized the Ameren Missouri Osage Plant with an "Outstanding Stewards of America's Waters" award for the plant's newly installed control technologies. Learn more.

The new control technologies at the Osage Plant not only improve generation capabilities but also meet new environmental standards.

Philip Thompson, superintendent, Osage Plant, explains, “Most people who work in the hydro industry have a deep rooted interest in our environment and see the beneficial use of producing power with clean renewable water. I am excited about the efficiency improvements made in the Osage control system and with the new turbines, because it allows us to produce more energy with the same amount of water. Additionally, it helps Ameren Missouri keep rates lower while producing more revenue for the company in the Midwest Independent System Operator (MISO) ancillary service market.”
