Glacier Hills Wind Farm Approved by PSC of Wisconsin
LCG, January 13, 2010--The Public Service Commission (PSC) of Wisconsin yesterday approved We Energies' application for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity (CPCN) to construct the Glacier Hills Wind Farm in Columbia County. The project is estimated to cost between $335 million and $435 million, with an electric generating capacity of up to 207 MW.
The Glacier Hills Wind Farm project will include 90 wind turbines, and each turbine will have a generating capacity of 1.5 to 2.3 MW. The project will be connected to an existing 138-kV electric transmission line. The wind farm footprint encompasses approximately 17,300 acres.
The application for the CPCN was filed in October 2008. Wisconsin legislation passed in March 2006 increased renewable portfolio standards (RPS) and set a renewable energy target of 10% by December 31, 2015 for utilities.
