Wisconsin Energy, which goes by We Energies, said the project will produce about 50 megawatts of electricity and add to the companyÂ’s renewable energy portfolio.
"With this partnership with We Energies we have the potential to create a real win-win situation by bringing jobs to the community, improving our millÂ’s competitiveness and providing more green power to the state of Wisconsin," Domtar CEO John D. Williams said.
We Energies will file paperwork with the state seeking approval of the plant early next year and hopes to complete the project in 2013. The company provides both electric and natural gas service.
