WPL Receives Regulatory Approval for Bent Tree Wind Project
LCG, October 1, 2009--Wisconsin Power and Light (WPL) yesterday received the final regulatory approval from the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission (MPUC) necessary for WPL to proceed with the construction of the initial phase of the Bent Tree Wind Farm in Freeborn County, Minnesota. The Public Service Commission of Wisconsin (PSCW) approved the plan three months ago.
The initial phase of the Bent Tree Wind Farm will have a design capacity of 200 MW, with a second phase that could add another 200 MW of electric generating capacity. The site covers 32,500 acres. The estimated cost of the initial phase is approximately $425 to $475 million, excluding allowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC). Commercial operations are scheduled to commence in 2011.
WPL, a subsidiary of Alliant Energy Corporation, plans to provide 12 percent of its retail energy supply from renewable energy resources by 2012. Wisconsin legislation enacted in March 2006 set an overall, statewide renewable energy goal of 10 percent by the end of 2015.
