ST. LOUIS (AP) — The windy plains of Kansas could be a treasure trove in the nation’s effort to harness clean energy. But a major proposal to move wind-generated electricity east from Kansas is meeting opposition from farmers who don’t want high-power transmission lines on their land.

Houston-based Clean Line Energy Partners wants to build a 750-mile-long high-voltage overhead transmission line. Hundreds of tall towers would carry a power line moving wind-generated energy from Kansas to Indiana.
