ND – (NewsDakota.com) A big new wind farm is proposed for Barnes County. It would be 300 megawatts, and it would be called the “Glacier Ridge Wind Farm.”

It would be on 34,450 acres about five miles northeast of Valley City. And it would consist of up to 87 turbines.

North Dakota Public Service Commissioner Brian Kalk says the PSC just received the application.

The company wants to start construction by November. Kalk says the PSC will call for a public hearing on the proposal, once it’s deemed the filing is complete.

Barnes County is already home to three wind farms – Ashtabula One, Two, and Three.
