Glacier Hills Wind Project |
A new wind power project looms on the horizon for 2017. If built it will be the first large wind generation to go up in Wisconsin project since Glacier Hills in Columbia
County. All told, nearly 50 wind turbines could be built and placed in
service in Lafayette County east of Platteville, according to Vanessa
Tutos, government affairs director for project developer EDP Renewables.
The project enjoys strong support from local landowners.
