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.”

When 2GreenEnergy was launched in 2009, there was still some talk about flywheels as potentially scalable solutions for energy storage. But in the last 10 years, no one’s heard a peep about this subject from any credible source.
Of course, now we have charlatans coming out of the woodwork, calling on idiots to invest in clean energy “technologies” that are totally nonsensical, like these conmen.
In today’s world where honesty is a joke, you can count on criminal liars to emerge from the shadows to rip off a few (or many) idiots.
It’s interesting that the countries that have the highest levels of education have the lowest levels of crime.
Some have suggested that the United States deliberately under-educates its people so as to fill its for-profit prisons. I’m not so cynical, but it’s clear that we care very little about educating our masses, and we seem to accept higher rates of crime than our more progressive counterparts.
Nations in Northern Europe and elsewhere around the world are tearing down their prisons, because so few of their people turn to crime. No one is hungry, impoverished, or living on the streets.
We regard the underclass as animals; others regard everyone as a human being.
This asshole’s only strength is his ability to prey on Americans’ ignorance, in this case, failure to understand that the platforms of the Republicans and Democrats flipflopped in the early 20th Century.
