OneEnergy Renewables, a Public Benefit Corporation, has entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with We Energies, Wisconsin Public Service Corporation (WPS) and Madison Gas and Electric Company (MGE). Through this agreement, OneEnergy will construct two utility-scale solar projects, totaling approximately 165 MW, both located in Columbia County, Wisconsin, significantly advancing Wisconsin towards its clean energy goals. The two sites are named Good Oak (98 MW) and Gristmill (67 MW), which reference and pay homage to the area’s natural habitat and local history.
To deliver full solutions for its partners, OneEnergy is developing and constructing the projects with handover at commercial operations. The projects will be built using union labor and workers from across the state. The power produced by these sites will help Wisconsin meet its net-zero emissions goal by 2050.
“At OneEnergy, we are committed to developing high-quality projects that are built for longevity. We are fortunate to partner with an amazing group of landowners hosting these projects and are excited to be constructing them for a similarly strong group of utility partners,” stated Eric Udelhofen, VP of development at OneEnergy.
Set to provide long-term energy benefits for Wisconsin communities and help advance the state’s leadership in renewable energy generation, the projects are expected to be constructed in 2026 and 2027.
