Xcel says NO to Kandiyohi’s Midtown Burner
May 23rd, 2008
EEEEEEEEEE-HA! The Kandioyhi Midtown Eco-Crapper is DEAD! Well, maybe not dead, but it’s got a stake, a big silver cross, stuck in its ugly slimy heart.
Hot off the press from Barbara Bridgeman, Executive Assistant to David Sparby, CEO & President of NSP-Minnesota (that’s him up there singing praises of his company), some real good and long awaited (dare I say expected?) news:
Northern States Power Company has ended negotiations with Midtown-Eco Energy, LLC, in connection with a proposed biomass plant in the Phillips neighborhood of Minneapolis. NSP’s decision was based on a number of factors including its assessment of ongoing system portfolio needs.
It’s about time, but like they say, they have to “negotiate” with everyone, even Excelsior Energy, and Kandiyohi Development is no different.
And of course I sent a jubilant thank you note to Mr. Sparby. Poor guy had to joust with moi and Mr. Muller at the Red Wing Xcel lovefest a couple weeks ago, and we greatly appreciated his willingness to listen.
EEEEEEEEEE-HA! The Kandioyhi Midtown Eco-Crapper is DEAD!
