Colstrip operator eyeing wind farm in southeast Montana


TOM LUTEY
Colstrip Power Plant operator and co-owner Talen Energy is eyeing a wind farm on the southeast Montana plains just outside the community where the coal-fired generator is located.
Documents obtained by The Billings Gazette show a targeted project area of roughly 14 square miles in Rosebud and Treasure counties where Talen Energy, in a joint venture with Pattern Energy, is pursuing lease agreements for a wind farm of unspecified capacity.
Both companies have energy interests in Montana currently. Talen has a 30% share of Colstrip Unit 3, a power plant facing increasing pressure to close by late 2025. Pattern owns the 80-megawatt Stillwater Wind Farm near Reed Point, which sells electricity to NorthWestern Energy. ....

Opponents Protest Bill Allowing NorthWestern To Pass Colstrip Costs To Customers


Montana Public Radio
People in Missoula protested a bill that would allow electric utilities to collect a rate of return and pass on costs of coal-fired power plants to customers ahead of a Montana House committee hearing on the policy on Apr. 14, 2021.
As the Montana House held its first hearing on a bill that could allow NorthWestern Energy to pass costs on to its customers for the utility’s coal-fired power investments, opponents of the idea held protests in multiple cities.
Lawmakers continue to debate the cost of the proposal.
Around 50 people gathered in a protest organized in part by climate change advocacy group 350Montana in front of a NorthWestern Energy office building in Missoula. ....
