The issue with that, is that here in North Dakota, we don't have the infrastructure in place to take that electricity out of state. We already have a coal plant along with a hydroelectric plant that produce more than the state needs (along with some wind towers in several places).


Closing the coal plant and building a gas plant is probably the best solution.

The price of LNG liquefaction plants is huge and you want them on the sea so you need pipelines too.
