Broken Promises: OPPD and Coal in North Omaha

Expect a locally focused documentary about public power, environmental justice and decision-making in Omaha. Broken Promises looks at OPPD’s aging North Omaha coal plant, repeated promises to retire or convert coal generation, the state’s legal intervention and the added pressure of large-scale energy demand.

This Film Streams screening offers a chance to engage with a current Omaha issue through a community-centered lens. For viewers interested in North Omaha, energy policy, environmental impacts or the future of Nebraska public power, the documentary puts those questions in one local story.
