Gillette is the seat of Campbell County and the commercial center of the Powder River Basin, which produces more coal than any other region in the United States. The basin accounts for roughly 40 percent of national coal output, and the largest surface mines in the country, including North Antelope Rochelle and Black Thunder, operate within an hour's drive of the city. Gillette calls itself the Energy Capital of the Nation, a designation that extends to coalbed methane, conventional natural gas, and oil extraction across the surrounding plains.
The city itself was incorporated in 1892 and grew slowly until the coal boom of the 1970s. Production at the Powder River Basin strip mines scaled up after the 1970 Clean Air Act encouraged power plants to switch to lower-sulfur western coal. Population more than tripled between 1970 and 1980, and Campbell County's revenue base is dominated to this day by mineral severance taxes that fund county and state government.
