"FWIW, here's a link to a story about a proposed plant in WI that puts the cost around 70 to 80 mil."

But that's a whole plant. We don't need new plants do we? We just need better controls on the grid. How much can that posibly cost?

Yeah, we need new plants, too. Demand for electricity in the next few years is expected to increase by double digit percentages. Can't transmit what you haven't generated.

Not to sound like a nut, but this is all seeming a bit coincidental that they now want to sack the slob taxpayer and already know how much they want to spend on it.
