Item 2.02  Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On May 7, 2008, Great Plains Energy issued a press release announcing first quarter 2008 results.  A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.

The press release contains information regarding Great Plains Energy’s reportable segments, including the KCP&L reportable segment.  Accordingly, information in the press release relating to KCP&L is also being furnished on behalf of KCP&L.

Item 8.01 Other Information

On May 7, 2008, KCP&L announced the completion of a cost and schedule update for the Iatan 1 environmental project and the Iatan 2 coal plant construction project.  This updated assessment was driven by several factors, including (a) the combined projects reaching a milestone of 70% - 75% of the engineering work completed; (b) the integration of the Iatan 2 “Balance of Plant” schedule and quantity estimates from Kiewit Industrial Corporation into the master schedule and budget; and (c) continued challenging construction market trends, including rapidly escalating costs for construction materials and services, the level of global investment in power production facilities, the decline in the value of the U.S. dollar, and constrained labor availability.  KCP&L announced the following results:

· Based on the top end of the new estimate ranges, the combined increase in projected costs of the Iatan 1 environmental project and the new Iatan 2 unit is approximately 19 percent.

· Compared to the previous estimate of $837 million - $914 million issued in December 2006, KCP&L’s approximate 55 percent share of the total projected cost of Iatan 2 has increased to a range of $994 million - $1.051 billion, with the top end of the range representing a 15 percent increase.

· The in-service date for Iatan 2 continues to be the summer of 2010.

2

· KCP&L’s 70 percent share of the projected cost of the Iatan 1 environmental project has increased to a range of $330 million - $350 million.  This represents an increase of 33 percent compared to the top end of the previous range estimate of $255 million - $264 million for Iatan 1 included in KCP&L’s December 2006 projection of Total Environmental Retrofits under its Comprehensive Energy Plan.

· The in-service date for the Iatan 1 project is now expected to be February 2009 compared to the previous estimate of year-end 2008.

GREAT PLAINS ENERGY ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER

FINANCIAL RESULTS

Kansas City, MO., May 7, 2008 – Great Plains Energy Incorporated (NYSE:GXP) today announced first quarter 2008 reported earnings of $47.1 million or $0.55 per share, compared to first quarter 2007 reported earnings of $23.0 million or $0.28 per share.  Core earnings, which exclude net mark-to-market gains and losses on energy contracts and other items, were $13.0 million or $0.15 per share for the first quarter 2008, compared to a loss of $11.0 million or $0.13 per share in the first quarter of 2007.  Reported earnings are reconciled to core earnings in attachment B.

Compared to 2007, first quarter 2008 core earnings were favorably impacted by new retail rates, favorable weather, increased wholesale revenues and litigation settlement proceeds at Kansas City Power & Light (KCP&L), as well as higher delivered volumes at Strategic Energy.  These positive factors were somewhat offset by the impact of higher purchased power expense due to plant outages and increased depreciation and amortization expense at KCP&L.

On April 2, 2008, Great Plains Energy announced the entry into a definitive agreement with Direct Energy Services, LLC (“Direct Energy”), a subsidiary of Centrica plc (LSE: CNA), under which Direct Energy will acquire from Great Plains Energy all of the outstanding ownership interests in Strategic Energy, L.L.C. for $300 million in cash, subject to closing adjustments.

“In the first quarter of 2008, we followed through on our plans to increase our focus on regulated operations by reaching an agreement to sell Strategic Energy,” commented Chairman and CEO Mike Chesser.  “Also, we are pleased that this quarter represented a marked improvement over last year.  We are, however, experiencing challenges in our generation fleet performance and are taking steps to continue to improve plant availability.”

Earnings Guidance

Due to the status and timing of the Aquila transaction as well as the pending sale of Strategic Energy, Great Plains Energy is not issuing 2008 guidance or confirming future years’ guidance at this time.

BUSINESS SEGMENTS:

Kansas City Power & Light

First quarter 2008 reported earnings were $17.0 million or $0.20 per share compared to $2.1 million or $0.02 per share in first quarter last year.  Core earnings at KCP&L were $15.1 million or $0.18 per share for the first quarter 2008 compared to $2.1 million or $0.02 per share in 2007.

Revenues for the first quarter 2008 increased to $297.6 million, a 16 percent increase over first quarter 2007.  Retail revenues rose to $248.7 million in first quarter 2008 compared to $216.9 million in 2007 due primarily to new retail rates, favorable weather and increased usage.  Wholesale revenues rose to $43.1 million, a 26 percent increase from the 2007 level of $34.2 million.  The increase in wholesale revenues was attributable mainly to increased volumes at higher prices.

Partially offsetting the retail and wholesale revenue growth in the first quarter 2008 were the following factors:

·   an increase in purchased power expense due to increased purchased power volumes primarily from plant outages and increased prices; and

·   higher operating expenses due to increased depreciation and amortization expense.

Iatan Project Update

KCP&L has completed a cost and schedule update for the Iatan 1 environmental project and the Iatan 2 coal plant construction project.  This updated assessment was driven by several factors, including (a) the combined projects reaching a milestone of 70% - 75% of the engineering work completed; (b) the integration of the Iatan 2 “Balance of Plant” schedule and quantity estimates from Kiewit Industrial Corporation into the master schedule and budget; and (c) continued challenging construction market trends, including rapidly escalating costs for construction materials and services, the level of global investment in power production facilities, the decline in the value of the U.S. dollar, and constrained labor availability.

-Page 3-

KCP&L recently completed the update and key results were as follows:

·   Based on the top end of the new estimate ranges, the combined increase in projected costs of the Iatan 1 environmental project and the new Iatan 2 unit is approximately 19 percent.

·   Compared to the previous estimate of $837 million - $914 million issued in December 2006, KCP&L’s approximate 55 percent share of the total projected cost of Iatan 2 has increased to a range of $994 million - $1.051 billion, with the top end of the range representing a 15 percent increase.  Excluding approximately $47 million of certain items not typically included in a cost per kilowatt (kW) calculation, the cost of Iatan 2 is estimated to range from $2,083 / kW to $2,204 / kW.

·   The in-service date for Iatan 2 continues to be the summer of 2010.

·   KCP&L’s 70 percent share of the projected cost of the Iatan 1 environmental project has increased to a range of $330 million - $350 million.  This represents an increase of 33 percent compared to the top end of the previous range estimate of $255 million - $264 million for Iatan 1 included in KCP&L’s December 2006 projection of Total Environmental Retrofits under its Comprehensive Energy Plan.

·   The in-service date for the Iatan 1 project is now expected to be February 2009 compared to the previous estimate of year-end 2008.

“Though we are seeing cost increases in the Iatan projects, they are in line with what the industry as a whole is experiencing,” commented Bill Downey, President and Chief Executive Officer of KCP&L.  “The updated assessment reflects our intent to manage the cost of the projects prudently while, at the same time, holding as closely as possible to the original schedule.  We continue to believe that when in service, Iatan 2 will be competitive with other coal plants under construction and will serve our region well for years to come.”

Strategic Energy

Reported earnings for the first quarter 2008 were $52.9 million or $0.62 per share compared to $27.1 million or $0.33 per share in 2007. Strategic Energy’s first quarter 2008 core earnings were $5.2 million or $0.06 per share compared to a core loss of $6.9 million or $0.08 per share in 2007.  Higher core earnings in the first quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007 were driven by higher delivered volumes at a higher average retail gross margin per MWh, excluding unrealized net mark-to-market impacts.  Margins in the first quarter of 2007 were negatively impacted by customer attrition and a resettlement charge.

-Page 4-

Strategic Energy’s first quarter 2008 revenues were $527.8 million, up 29 percent compared to first quarter 2007 driven by a 27 percent increase in delivered volumes.  The average retail gross margin per MWh in first quarter 2008 was $20.65 compared to $15.79 in the first quarter of 2007.  Excluding unrealized net mark-to-market impacts, the average retail gross margin per MWh in first quarter 2008 was $5.08 compared to $2.16 in the previous year first quarter.

As a result of the announced sale of Strategic Energy to Direct Energy, Strategic Energy’s financial results will be reported as discontinued operations in Great Plains Energy’s financial statements beginning in the second quarter 2008.

Other

Reported results for the “Other” segment, which mainly includes the Company’s investments in affordable housing and unallocated corporate charges, for the first quarter 2008 were a loss of $22.8 million or $0.27 loss per share compared to a loss of $6.2 million or $0.07 loss per share in the first quarter last year.  Core results in the “Other” category for the first quarter 2008 were a loss of $7.3 million or $0.09 loss per share in the first quarter of 2008 compared to a loss of $6.2 million or $0.07 loss per share in the first quarter of 2007.  The primary differences between core and reported results for first quarter 2008 are the unrealized mark-to-market impact of interest rate hedging and non-labor transition costs related to the Aquila transaction, partially offset by the settlement of litigation below the reserved amount.  

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Great Plains Energy provides in its earnings releases descriptions of “core earnings” in addition to earnings calculated in accordance with GAAP.  Great Plains Energy also provides its earnings guidance in terms of core earnings.  Core earnings are a non-GAAP financial measure that differs from GAAP earnings because it excludes the effects of discontinued operations, certain unusual items and mark-to-market gains and losses on energy contracts.  Core earnings for historical periods are reconciled to GAAP earnings in attachment B.  The Company also provides Strategic Energy average retail gross margin per MWh, excluding unrealized net mark-to-market impacts, in addition to average retail gross margin per MWh calculated in accordance with GAAP.

The Company believes core earnings provide to investors a meaningful indicator of its results that is comparable among periods because it excludes the effects of discontinued operations, certain unusual items and mark-to-market gains and losses on energy contracts.  These items are excluded from core earnings because they may not be indicative of Great Plains Energy’s prospective earnings

-Page 5-

potential.  Investors should note that this non-GAAP measure involves judgments by management, including whether an item is classified as an unusual item, and the Company’s definition of core earnings may differ from similar terms used by other companies. The impact of these items could be material to operating results presented in accordance with GAAP.  The Company believes average retail gross margin per MWh excluding unrealized net mark-to-market impacts removes non-cash timing differences that occur during the term of the contracts prior to delivery and impact only one side of the overall buy-sell transaction and provides investors with a measure of average retail gross margin per MWh that more accurately reflects Strategic Energy’s realized margin on delivered MWhs.

Core earnings are used internally to measure performance against budget and in reports for management and the Board of Directors and are a component, subject to adjustment, of employee and executive incentive compensation programs.  Average retail gross margin per MWh excluding unrealized net mark-to-market impacts is used by management and the Board of Directors as a measurement of Strategic Energy’s realized retail gross margin per delivered MWh.

1	This is a non-GAAP financial measure that differs from GAAP because it excludes the impact of
	unrealized fair value gains or losses.  Management believes this measure is more reflective of average
	retail gross margins on MWhs delivered due to the non-cash nature and volatility of changes in fair
	value related to non-hedging energy contracts and from cash flow hedge ineffectiveness.  Management
	and the Board of Directors use this as a measurement of Strategic Energy's realized average retail
	gross margin per delivered MWh, which are settled upon delivery at contracted prices.
