Merger with Westar

In 2016, Great Plains and Westar Energy announced merger plans,[4] but this proposed merger was rejected by Kansas Corporation Commission utility regulators as unfavorable to Kansas consumers.[5] A new merger plan with Westar was announced in 2017.[6] As of May 24, 2018, this merger has been approved by both the Missouri Public Service Commission and Kansas regulators, with the combined company to be named Evergy.[7]

On October 7, 2019, the two operating companies officially changed names and rebranded to Evergy in the communities they serve.
