Wisconsin utilities are planning to retire several coal and natural gas plants in the next two to three years and this electricity capacity needs to be replaced. The cost of solar has declined tremendously, making solar projects an economic solution.
Wisconsin utilities are partnering with companies that want to develop more clean energy at scale, and also develop a voluntary pollinator-friendly standard that will enable bees, birds, and soil to thrive alongside solar developments.
