The City of Sikeston owns and operates Sikeston's 235 MW electric generation power plant, providing low-cost, dependable power to our industrial customers. We also own and operate our municipal water works and waste water treatment services, which removes many of the headaches for our business community, and allows us to be locally proactive in meeting their utility requirements.
