Report on Public Comments from MGE’s Community Energy Workshop Available

A new report by RePower Madison analyzing comments received by MGE at their Community Workshop is available.

MGE’s Community Energy Workshop on April 19th, 2016 did not include a thorough analysis of public comments. At first, MGE released only a summary from the comments collect that evening. Seven months later, MGE released the full list of comments along with their own report. RPM’s co-chair, Nancy Korda, analyzed these comments.

This report found that MGE customers want more outreach and information from the utility, and they want Energy 2030 to be more ambitious and forward-thinking. They want MGE to explain what it plans to do and when, and they want to know how they can contribute to future success.
