We Energies filed plans with the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin to build five new large-scale renewable energy projects.
In total, the projects would add 500 MW of solar power and 180 MW of wind power to the grid. Also included is 100 MW of battery storage.
“These renewable energy projects are part of our commitment to build a bright, sustainable future and provide customers affordable, reliable and clean energy,” says Mike Hooper, president of We Energies.
“As we close our older, less-efficient fossil fuel plants, projects like these — along with our proposed highly efficient natural gas plants — will help power the grid and make sure customers have the energy they depend on.”
The proposed projects are the Dawn Harvest Solar Energy Center in Rock County, the Saratoga Solar Energy Center in Wood County, the Ursa Solar Park in Columbia County, the Badger Hollow Wind Farm in Iowa and Grant Counties and the Whitetail Wind Farm in Grant County. The projects are expected to be eligible for federal tax credits.
If approved, the facilities would be jointly owned by We Energies, Wisconsin Public Service and Madison Gas & Electric, serving customers across the state.

There really are threats to human civilization that seem to be mounting in intensity:
• World fascism. (If it can happen in the U.S., it could conceivably happen anywhere.)
• Environmental collapse.
• Malicious use of AI.
• Pandemics, as misinformation on vaccinations spread and the frozen tundra melts, releasing pathogens never seen by humans.
• Nuclear war.
Addressing the point made at left, is there any scenario in which world governments agree to cooperate so as to stave off the end of an organized society here on Earth? One supposes so, though it sounds far-fetched in today’s world in which the leaders of most of the 200+ sovereign nations are trying so desperately to cling to power.
Obviously, James Carville has been wrong before, but it appears that he’s onto something here.
An ever-increasing number of Americans are realizing that Trump is criminally insane, and is leading this nation to destruction.
It’s a pleasure to see that Dr. Brian Cox has people so popular, having joined the ranks for Neil DeGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye, and a few others. This phenomenon of celebrity physicists if one of very few bright spots in our modern world.
I would qualify what he says at left as follows: the only people who hate the economics here are those invested in fossil fuels. Clean energy and transportation are already huge industries, and they’re growing at an amazing pace–even in the face of heavy suppression by Big Oil and Donald Trump.
