Madison Gas and Electric (MGE) is seeking approval from the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin (PSCW) to build a 20 MW solar array and 40 MW BESS in Fitchburg, Wis.
Dubbed the Sunnyside Solar Energy Center, the project will provide locally generated solar energy to MGE’s distribution system.
“MGE continues on our path toward deep decarbonization to achieve net-zero carbon electricity,” says Jeff Keebler, MGE chairman, president and CEO.
“Carbon is our target, and our carbon reduction goals are aligned with science. Under our commitments, by 2030, MGE expects to deliver electricity with 80% fewer carbon emissions to every MGE electric customer. Similarly, by 2050, we expect to deliver net-zero carbon electricity to every MGE electric customer. We’re decarbonizing our grid cost-effectively for the benefit of all customers.”
EDF Renewables is the project’s developer. If approved, project construction could begin next year.

MGE Seeks More Local Solar and Battery Storage to Serve Customers
The many millions of participants in today’s “No Kings” rallies around the world are doing everything possible to avoid hostility between the event supporters and Trump supporters who claim it promotes a “hatred of America” and “domestic terrorism.”
Whether these days of hate and oppression will persist for a “long, long time,” or whether the pendulum is about to swing back the other way remains to be seen.
It’s certainly a terrible time to be an American.
I just saw a question on social media: do you want your tax dollars going to feed someone else’s kids??
Yes. I’d like to live in a world in which no kids go hungry, and I don’t have a problem contributing to create that world.
This may sound like a tall order, especially given the variability of wealth in the world’s countries.
But let’s stick with the U.S. for a minute. In the US, nearly 14 million children live in food-insecure households, a statistic that has risen recently, with some reports indicating that one in five children face hunger.
This is disgraceful.
So again, yes. Please sign me up to allocate a portion of my tax dollars to feeding hungry kids.
