Seven utilities have agreed to jointly build a new coal-fired power plant on the site of the existing Big Stone generating station near Milbank, SD. Otter Tail Power, Central Minnesota Municipal Power Agency, Great River Energy, Heartland Consumers Power District, Missouri River Energy Services, Montana-Dakota Utilities and Southern Minnesota Municipal Power Agency announced the plan for a 600-MW plant this past week. Construction of the plant is contingent on the approval of all necessary permits. "Big Stone II will help these companies fulfill their commitment to meet their customers' energy needs in an environmentally responsible and economical manner," said Ward Uggerud of Otter Tail, the project's lead developer. Emission-control equipment for the plant likely would include selective catalytic reduction and a fabric filter for particulate collection, followed by a wet scrubber for sulfur dioxide removal.
