Randy Coleman never planned on a 46-year career at Wheatland Electric. He was just looking for a job out of high school.  

Instead, what he found was a calling—one that took him from the warehouse floor to the line crew, through leadership roles, and into communities across our service territory.

In our latest episode of "Who's On the Line?" Coleman talks about the early days of linework, unforgettable storms, the importance of safety, and the people who made the job matter. It’s an honest, down-to-earth conversation about work ethic, service, and why the cooperative family has meant so much to him. 

The Holcomb to Sidney 345-kV Transmission Line Project is a major regional transmission initiative directed by the Southwest Power Pool (SPP).  

The project involves the construction of an approximately 360-mile new 345-kilovolt (kV) transmission line extending from Holcomb, KS, to Sidney, NE by our wholesale power provider: Sunflower Electric Power Corp. 

The primary purpose of this project is to enhance system resiliency, improve reliability during severe weather events, and support long-term regional energy needs.
