MGE’s Shared Solar - Strix is a community solar program for MGE customers who wish to reduce their environmental footprint associated with their electric use. Participants pay a one-time, up-front fee and then a monthly premium to subscribe to shares of solar energy generated by MGE's Strix Solar array in Fitchburg.
Community solar from MGE
MGE's community solar programs offer eligible electric customers the opportunity to purchase shares of locally generated solar energy. Participants share the output of the solar installation. Community solar customers don't receive the solar energy directly—instead, their participation supports the growth of renewable energy supplied to our grid, helping to create a more sustainable energy supply for all MGE electric customers.
Participants do not install or maintain their own systems, and no special equipment is required to participate. Plus, you can take your shares with you if you move within the MGE service territory.
