from buyers, significant financial investments, and a means of definitively allocating the costs of the new transmission. The states and wind advocates within MISO’s footprint have made a firm commitment to wind development, projecting the development of 10,000 MW of new wind power across much of the Midwest. 63 Concerted discussion and planning toward this goal over the past four years has led to significant progress. In June 2006 a consortium of electric cooperatives, municipals and investor-owned utilities called CapX 2020 announced that its members would invest several billion dollars in three 345 kV transmission lines spanning 550 miles, linking South Dakota, North Dakota, and various points in Minnesota and Wisconsin. 64 If successful, these projects will provide a significant portion of the new transmission needed to make the vision of Northern Great Plains wind development a reality. Kansas – Oklahoma Conditional Constraint Area The Central Great Plains—western Kansas and Oklahoma—have significant potential wind generation that, if developed, could greatly improve the economic vitality of this rural area while bringing Figure 5-8.
