ITC Great Plains purchased two electric transmission substations as part of its ongoing commitment to help Kansas address long-term energy challenges.

 

The NorthWestern partnership is one of several ITC anticipates signing in support of the 3,000 mile, 765 kilovolt (kV) Green Power Express electrical system designed to facilitate the flow of up to 12,000 megawatts (MW) of renewable energy from the upper Midwest to load centers in central Midwest and mid-Atlantic regions of the country.

 

--Highlights ---Net income for the second quarter of $30.8 million, or $0.61 per diluted common share ---Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2009 of $59.5 million, or $1.17 per diluted common share ---Capital investments of $200.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 ---2009 EPS guidance range increased to $2.32 to $2.42 per diluted common share and 2009 capital expenditure guidance increased to $300 million to $345 million 

The Kansas Corporation Commission ruled that ITC Great Plains can construct and own two sections of this important 765 kilovolt (kV) project that will will establish a critical east-west transmission corridor across the state.

 

ITC Great Plains received siting approval to build the first phase of its 345-kilovolt Kansas Electric Transmission Authority (KETA) project, an 89-mile transmission line between Spearville and Hays, Kan.

 

ITC has entered into an agreement with MDU Resources Group, Inc. (MDU) to participate in ITC's Green Power Express transmission project.

 

ITC raised concerns about the lack of needed comprehensive electricity transmission policy reforms included in the American Clean Energy and Security Act (ACES) passed by the U.S. House of Representatives.

 

The companies will concentrate on improving product development lead times, efficiency, technical design, material standardization and life cycle costs.

 

Agreement will resolve KCC V-Plan certification; ITC Great Plains and Prairie Wind Transmission would be authorized to build different segments of the V-Plan, which will run between Spearville and Wichita, Kan.

 

ITC praises U.S. Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources bill for removing major roadblocks to the development of much-needed transmission.

 

A program ITC initiated three years ago to reduce emissions from old transmission equipment has resulted in a significant drop in a potent greenhouse gas, Sulfur Hexafluoride (SF6).

 

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) approved Green Power Express LP's request for favorable transmission investment incentives.

 

Chief Financial Officer Edward M. Rahill appointed to President of ITC Grid Development, LLC; Cameron M. Bready named to succeed Rahill as Senior Vice President and CFO.

 

FERC order will support construction of major transmission projects

 

Study shows wind-generated electricity from the upper Midwest can be cost-competitive when connected to the nation's electricity grid via new extra-high voltage transmission lines.

 

Terry S. Harvill, Ph. D., will shape company strategies in response to energy policy issues impacting ITC and its customers, and will advocate energy policy that supports those strategies.

 

The North American Electric Reliability Corporation cites ITC's system security operations as an Example of Excellence as part of its Reliability Readiness Evaluation and Improvement Program.

 

Governor says project can export abundant wind resources and provide more redundancy and reliability in South Dakota's transmission system.

 

The project would facilitate the movement of power from the wind-abundant areas in the Dakotas, Minnesota and Iowa to Midwest load centers that demand clean, renewable energy.

 

Approval would provide ITC with the regulatory certainty required to make significant transmission investments in Kansas and the SPP region.

 

ITC Holdings Corp. has assumed operational control for more than 4,500 miles of transmission lines and 208 substations acquired last year from Alliant Energy in Iowa, Minnesota, Illinois and Missouri.

 

The Elm Creek 230 kV substation near Concordia which provides for interconnection of the Cloud County Wind Farm. The Flat Ridge 138 kV substation near Medicine Lodge which provides for interconnection of the Flat Ridge Wind Farm.

 

ITC remains committed to addressing the historic lack of investment, known reliability and congestion issues, new mandatory reliability standards and the interconnection of renewables.

 

This $46 million Murphy Station project is the largest that ITC has constructed in Michigan. It is designed to address a projected increase in power demands over the next three years.

 

There is a critical need for further electric transmission development in the Upper Midwest to harvest the region's strong wind energy potential.

 

Decision gives ITC the certainty to invest millions of dollars in Oklahoma and supports a growing vision in the state and across the region to build a modern, robust and integrated transmission grid.

 

ITC subsidiaries have sent 37 linemen to work on transmission restoration in Louisiana. The crews from Michigan and Iowa will spend up to two weeks there working on line and station repairs.
