Yes. The State of Wisconsin requires all electric utilities to use some renewable energy. In 2008, MGE will generate 1.73% of our energy from renewable resources. The costs to supply this mandated renewable energy are spread across all customers. The green pricing program allows MGE to go beyond this level.
