Public Utilities Commission

The meeting on Minnesota Power's proposed 85-megawatt solar facility in Cohasset is rescheduled to 6 p.m. on April 21, 2025.

Minnesota Power must prove the acquisition of its parent company ALLETE by private equity investors is in the public's best interest.

Two state agencies will share information about Minnesota Power's proposed solar project in Cohasset, Leech Lake Reservation and Deer Lake Township.

Plus, a report from the University of Minnesota indicates rural hospitals are overrepresented in the 500 obstetric wards closed between 2010 and 2022.

The $1 billion, 180-mile project is a jointly owned, high-voltage transmission line between Grand Rapids and St. Cloud, expected to come online in 2030.

Small nonprofits will be eligible to be reimbursed for expert testimony in a broader range of cases under the new state law, which aims to diversify the viewpoints heard by commissioners.

The approximately 180-mile transmission line will primarily follow existing transmission corridors, from Northern Minnesota to central Minnesota, to better serve the region in the transition to renewable energies.
