Prairie Wind Transmission, LLC: a joint venture company with Westar Energy Inc. to build and own new electric transmission assets in Kansas.

Prairie Wind Transmission is constructing approximately 108 miles of extra-high-voltage 345-kV double-circuit transmission lines linking a 345-kV substation near Wichita, Kan., to a new 345-kV substation northeast of Medicine Lodge, Kansas - near the Flat Ridge I Wind Farm jointly owned by Westar Energy and BP Alternative - and then south to the Kansas/Oklahoma border. The project will provide enhanced electricity transport in Kansas and support expansion of renewable electricity generation in the region.
