JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) - A panel of Missouri regulators is expressing concerns with a multistate wind energy project.
Three of five members of the state’s Public Service Commission spoke Tuesday against plans for the Grain Belt Express transmission line,foreshadowing a likely order against it.
Clean Line Energy Partners’ $2.2 billion project would transmit electricity from Kansas, across northern Missouri and Illinois to Indiana. The transmission line would pass through several area northeast Kansas and northwest Missouri counties. Electricity would be available for Missouri utilities.
Commissioners cast doubt on whether access to more wind power was worth concerns raised by property owners. Others questioned the benefit to Missouri ratepayers.
