Duluth Port, Minnesota Power Set Wind Shipment Milestone

BBC Peter R?nna on July 14 delivered a cargo it had loaded in Denmark of Siemens wind energy components to the Duluth Seaway Port Authority’s Clure Public Marine Terminal, the only general cargo terminal in the Port of Duluth-Superior. It was the 15th shipment of wind energy components for Minnesota Power’s Bison 4 project in North Dakota.

Stevedores from Lake Superior Warehousing Co. offloaded the project cargo – 12 cooling units and 14 generators – for subsequent delivery by truck to the utility’s Bison Wind Energy Center, near New Salem (ND), 465 miles from the port.
