Colorado’s two biggest power companies, Xcel Energy and Tri-State Generation and Transmission, on Thursday filed applications with state regulators to jointly develop a $180 million transmission project.
The proposed high-voltage power lines and a new substation would stretch from the San Luis Valley to Walsenburg and on to Pueblo. They would help serve the growing electricity needs in the state, the companies stated.
The companies would need approval from the Colorado Public Utilities Commission and also from local governments, they said.
