Madison Gas and Electric (MGE) and We Energies have completed construction on Badger Hollow Solar Farm with the site’s final panels in service, making the Wisconsin project fully operational. 

The project, a 300 MW facility located near the communities of Montfort and Cobb in Iowa County, Wis., came online in two 150 MW phases. The second phase began powering customers across the state last month, with the facility’s first phase coming online in 2021.

The project features 830,000 solar panels that track the sun as well as capture energy on both sides. The latter feature is useful in winter when sun reflects off the snow, says the company, in the operations of what it dubs the state’s largest solar farm.

“Wisconsin utilities have a long history of working together, and I appreciate the partnership with We Energies to make this project a great success,” says MGE’s Jeff Keebler. “The completion of Badger Hollow is another step in our ongoing transition to greater use of cost-effective, carbon-free renewable energy to serve all MGE electric customers. By 2030, we expect every MGE electric customer will have 80% fewer carbon emissions from their electricity use simply by being an MGE customer as we work toward our goal of net-zero carbon electricity.”

Is the Damage Permanent?

Nobody knows.

Without doubt, the damage is profound.  The world has recognized that the United States is being commanded by a madman and has abandoned its place as the leader of the world.

As we look back across history, we see a certain shelf-life to democracies.  It’s easy to believe that we’re in the final days of what became of ancient Greece. It’s also possible, as numerous scholars have asserted, that we’re on the precipice of the sixth extinction.

But it’s entirely possible that the pendulum may start to rebound toward the days of America’s greatness, the time of truth and fairness.

We’ll see.

Are You with President Trump?

A dwindling number of hateful idiots still cling to the ideas at left.

But what was once 77 million is now approximately 45 million, and that number is falling every day, as Trump leads us deeper into corruption, economic ruin, and the revulsion of our former international allies.

Maybe we’ll see a meme like this in a month or so, when the president’s approval rating has declined into the teens, but I doubt it.

Does Multiculturalism Mean Hating One Another?

Published

on

As an archconservative, Sowell disagrees with me on virtually everything, though I normally can find some merit to his position.

That’s not the case here, where “multiculturalism, diversity, and gender awareness” mean acceptance and tolerance, the precise opposite of “hating each other.”
