Grasslands Renewable Energy LLC has applied to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission requesting regulatory approvals needed to advance its Wind Spirit Project.
The Wind Spirit Project is a transmission system designed to access geographically diverse renewable energy from across Montana and the northern Great Plains. This renewable energy will be combined with energy-storage technologies and smart grid components to create a base load renewable energy supply, according to the company.
The energy for the Wind Spirit Project is expected to be collected through a series of 230 kV AC transmission lines and transported to large markets using high-voltage AC and DC transmission lines.
