SUGAR LAND--November 16, 2018--Written by John Egan for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Plans by electric utility Ameren Missouri (St. Louis, Missouri), a unit of Ameren Corporation (NYSE:AEE) (St. Louis, Missouri), to clean and decarbonize its generation portfolio took a big step forward late last month when Missouri utility regulators voted to approve the company's plan to acquire a 400-megawatt (MW) windfarm once it is built by a third-party developer. The High Prairie Windfarm, scheduled to be built in Schuyler County, Missouri, is expected to be the Show Me State's largest windfarm when it begins operating in late 2020. The facility, being developed TG High Prairie LLC (Queen City, Missouri), has a total investment value (TIV) of about $600 million.
