They project that the western United States will require 116,000 gigawatt hours of energy each year to meet renewable energy portfolio goals.
The proposed $3 billion TransWest Express high-voltage transmission line would connect southern Wyoming with Nevada, Arizona, and California and be completed in 2014.
