  • About

    The Citizens Energy Task Force (CETF) is a coalition of neighbors and citizens concerned about the proposed CapX2020 high voltage transmission lines in Minnesota and Wisconsin. As a legally registered "intervening party" in the CapX2020 permitting process, we represent the concerns of citizens who question the need for these particular high voltage power lines, and who support clean, sustainable, locally-generated power sources.

    The permitting process is going on now and we need you

    YOU BELIEVE citizens should have an influence on what type of energy is produced for Minnesota's and Wisconsin's energy needs and how far it travels.

    ADD YOUR VOICE to the CapX public hearing in your community. Speak up and write - your opinions matter.

    ADD YOUR VOICE to change the unfair eminent domain law, which exempts utilities from laws helping landowners to get a fair price in eminent domain.

    WE NEED YOUR HELP to raise money, inform citizens and get the word out.

    THIS IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY to have a voice in our energy future and to impact whether or not these lines will be built.
