Minnesota Power is proposing to build the Great Northern Transmission Line which they say will "bring cleaner, emission-free energy into Minnesota, meet growing energy demands and increase system reliability."
The Great Northern Transmission Line consists of a 500 kV transmission line from the Canadian border to Minnesota's Iron Range, and a 345 kV double circuit line from the Iron Range to near Duluth, Minnesota. The line will deliver hydropower generated by Manitoba Hydro to customers in the United States.
