Wind power begins to flow for KCP&L

13 September 2006 -- Kansas City Power & Light (KCP&L), a subsidiary of Great Plains Energy, announced its Spearville Wind Energy Facility is fully operational.

The site's 67 wind turbines are capable of producing 100.5 MW of electricity. Construction of the 67 wind turbines began last June. When completed, total capital cost of the project will be approximately $166 million. The site includes a new electrical substation to deliver energy to the power grid.

KCP&L is the first regulated electric utility to own and operate a large-scale wind facility in Kansas. The 100.5-MW facility is located near Spearville, Kan., about 17 miles northeast of Dodge City.
