Wind energy developer pulls plans for Lenawee County wind park, eyes Ionia, Gratiot instead

A report in the Ionia Sentinel-Standard says that plans for a proposed wind energy park in Lenawee County have been scratched in favor of creating a similar energy center in Ionia or Gratiot counties.

According to excerpts from the story:

With a looming deadline to complete a wind turbine park by the end of this year, officials with Blissfield Wind Energy LLC filed an amendment to a contract with Consumer’s Energy to relocate the project from Lenawee County to either Ionia or Gratiot counties. The Blissfield Wind Project is a partnership between Great Lakes Wind LLC and Exelon Wind, which is a division of Exelon Power.     

Bob Judge, manager for communications for Exelon Power, said a contract with Consumers Energy states that the wind turbines need to be completed by the end of 2012.
