Colorado wanted expensive solar and windmill electricity. They also wanted to give illegal aliens free utilities.
Costs of wind and solar in Colorado are under-estimated, do not include costs of power lines. Xcel Energy’s new $1.7 billion Power Pathway Project to build 550 miles of new 345-kilovolt power lines and at least four new substations in eastern and southeastern Colorado will add to the cost of green energy.
Xcel customers / ratepayers will be paying for the new power lines.
