GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) — Five companies have told North Dakota regulators that they plan to begin constructing wind farms this year that would generate up to 686 megawatts of electricity.
The letters of intent the companies filed with the state Public Service Commission don’t guarantee that the wind farms will be built. If they are constructed, they would increase the state’s wind energy capacity by 41 percent and would cost about $1 billion to complete, Commissioner Brian Kalk told the Grand Forks Herald (http://bit.ly/11JAeyV ).
