Show Notes

Madison Gas and Electric (MGE) is advancing clean energy goals by purchasing 15 megawatts of solar power from the Dawn Harvest Solar Energy Center in Wisconsin. This deal, approved by the Public Service Commission, allows MGE to own a portion of the 150 megawatt array. The utility, along with We Energies and Wisconsin Public Service, is part of WEC Energy Groups plan to increase renewables, reduce carbon emissions, and promote energy efficiency. MGEs CEO describes this as a crucial step in their renewables-first strategy, which aims to add over 750 megawatts of renewable and battery projects by 2030. The solar array will begin delivering power in 2028, contributing to MGEs goal of net-zero carbon electricity by 2050.
