31 December 2007 -- A decision by the Kansas Corporation Commission has led Westar Energy, Inc. to suspend plans to develop 200 MW of wind power by the end of 2010. The company said it will move forward with another 295 MW of wind power. Regulators found Westar's proposal to invest in wind energy prudent, but declined to approve its request for an incentive rate of return allowed by Kansas law.
