Kansas utility to retire old generating units by year's end

The largest electric utility in Kansas says it will retire small generating units in three communities by the end of the year and is citing new federal environmental regulations as one reason. Westar Energy announced Tuesday that it will shut down one coal-fired unit each in Lawrence and Tecumseh, east of Topeka, as well as a gas-fired unit in Hutchinson.
