- Getting the Price Right (Sept. 2017) – “The concern of Otter Tail Power (expressed in their comments filed February 10) is that Juhl Energy’s ‘proposed PPA rate exceeds Otter Tail’s avoided costs.’”
- Juhl Energy Sued for Millions (Dec. 2013) – “Our client would never have financed the turbines if they had known the county was not the owner,” said Choi. She said the complex series of transactions was a legal “soap opera,” adding that attempts to settle the suit with Juhl Energy at a sum less than the $3.3 million — including interest — it believes it is owed, has been fruitless. “They demanded a 50 percent discount,” she said.
