By Madison Gas and Electric (MGE)
At MGE, we’re building solar and wind farms, investing in battery storage, and partnering with our customers in innovative ways to achieve a cleaner energy future.
MGE uses renewables first, and we ensure other energy sources are available to keep our communities powered safely and without interruption. Safe, reliable and affordable energy is our fundamental obligation to you, our customers.
Commitment to energy affordability
We take our responsibility seriously. Safe, reliable energy helps to preserve the health, safety and vitality of our communities. As the energy landscape continues to evolve, maintaining energy affordability is a top priority. We are sensitive to the impacts our costs have on our customers as we transition to cleaner energy sources.

Goal of net-zero carbon electricity by 2050
MGE is working to reduce carbon emissions as cost-effectively as we can. We have a goal of net-zero carbon electricity by 2050.
Along with significant growth in renewable generation, our customers are helping us work toward net-zero carbon electricity by participating in MGE’s clean energy programs and programs that help manage when and how they use energy. If you’re looking to reduce your environmental footprint further, learn more about our optional renewable energy programs at mge.com/green.
Top-ranked electric reliability
MGE remains a national leader in electric reliability. We continue to modernize our electric distribution grid to further enhance reliability by making our systems less susceptible to weather and other threats.
While MGE uses renewables first, we ensure other energy sources are available to maintain reliable service. Highly efficient natural gas helps to enable our ongoing clean energy transition while maintaining reliability cost-effectively.
Natural gas complements renewable energy because natural gas plants can be dispatched quickly and at times when it’s more challenging for wind or solar generation. To learn more about our ongoing clean energy transition, visit mge.com/netzero.
