Apex, one of several energy conglomerates, wants to build a wind farm in Neosho County.
While specifics are not yet nailed to the absolute, Apex has its eye on about 130 turbines to generate up to 302.5 megawatts of power in a broad expanse south of Chanute and in the 10-mile corridor between Altoona and U.S. 59.
Opposition among some landowners, and others, has been amplified by the squeaky wheel syndrome.
Meanwhile, EDP Renewables met far less enmity when it proposed to build 60 turbines in northeast Allen County.
