This summer, we’ve all seen stories about the state of our electrical grid and the challenges of managing the energy transformation amid climate change and historic shifts in weather patterns here in Minnesota and the Midwest. That’s why it’s important during American Clean Power Week to pause and reflect on where we’ve been and where we’re going.

Clean energy – wind, solar and battery storage – is a dependable and growing source of homegrown power for Midwesterners and the grid is poised for a much-needed modernization. The Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) recently approved an 18-line transmission plan that will support 53 gigawatts of renewables as it improves grid reliability.
