On behalf of Sierra Club, Senior Researcher Tyler Comings, Clinic Director and Senior Economist Liz Stanton, PhD and Assistant Researcher Eliandro Tavares assisted with comments on Xcel Minnesota's proposal to acquire the Mankato natural gas plant. The Sierra Club concluded that the proposal should be denied because it was not economically justified and ran counter to the utility's greenhouse gas emission goals.
