Microgrid for downtown electricity in La Crosse could be funded by state grant
A new idea for supplying electricity to La Crosse government offices and one local college is being developed.
The La Crosse County Board is being asked to accept a state award of $100,000 for energy innovation. The money would pay for a study of organizing a microgrid in downtown La Crosse.
The independent energy project is intended to provide electricity to La Crosse City Hall, county buildings and Western Technical College — all located close to each other on the north end of downtown.
The County Board is scheduled to discuss the grant and take a vote on it at the regular monthly board meeting Thursday.

$100,000 for a study.
.gov at work.
WIZM please report back when you know what hands the $100,000 grift passes through on its way to a 10 page report (including illustrations) that any unfortunate victim of a public education could produce, being sure to include key words like Diversity, Inclusion, Sustainable, Resilience, Climate Change and Democracy as many times as possible and with the conclusion that more studies are necessary.

Exciting news for La Crosse! A microgrid downtown funded by a state grant would enhance energy resilience and sustainability. Looking forward to seeing this innovative project take shape.
