Capping off the CapX 2020 project…

NO Grid North Partners - transmission f/k/a CapX 2020 Posted on October 10, 2015 by adminOctober 10, 2015

I guess I’m not the only one putting this project in bankers boxes and wrapping it up.  11 years on this project, and it’s up, it’s built, wires in the air, cor-ten steel soldiers marching across the hills.  Yeah, it … Continue reading →
