PP&L ???
Pennsylvania Power and Light
I believe they own some coal mines and power plants in Montana. Apparently also in Washington or possibly just sent some trucks to help out.
Their power plants were sold off to a new company they created Talen Energy.
We live near one of their largest coal fired power plants in Pa. It is shut down now 90% of the time, but when temperatures drop in the winter they have to fire it up. Also during heat waves in the summer.
