Minnesota-Based Xcel Proposes Three New Small Natural Gas-Electricity Plants in North Dakota, Minnesota

The StarTribune is reporting:

Xcel Energy on Monday proposed building three new electrical generators in Minnesota and North Dakota that would burn natural gas.

One unit in Burnsville and two near Hankinson, N.D., 70 miles south of Fargo, would supply power when customer demand is at its peak, and would not operate most of the time, the utility said in a statement.

A big "thank you" to a reader for alerting me to the story.
