NatureWise® Renewable Energy Program
NatureWise® is a sound way to bring environmentally friendly electricity to communities WPS serves. Rather than producing electricity using coal, natural gas or other means, NatureWise supports the generation of electricity from a blend of wind and biomass (gases produced naturally from landfills and farm animal waste). This cleanly produced green electricity is then added to the power grid of communities in the WPS area.
NatureWise Programs
Wind power does not pollute the air or water, does not create any waste products, and does not produce any greenhouse gases. Biomass energy converts waste from farms and landfills to produce valuable green electricity.
This benefits the environment because using the methane from waste products as a fuel is better for the environment than releasing the methane into the air or burning it off. In addition, NatureWise saves resources for the future. As demand increases for renewable energy, WPS will add more renewable electricity to the NatureWise mix of resources.
