MINNEAPOLIS, MN (AP) — Xcel Energy has started gathering public input on its plan to build one of Minnesota’s largest transmission line projects in recent years.
The utility company has proposed building a 140-mile power line that would run from Becker in the north to Lyon County to the south.
The $500 million line would connect several new renewable energy projects.
If the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission approves the project, it would be completed by 2027 to 2028.
