Kohler, Wis. (April 21, 2021) – Alliant Energy and Kohler Co. team up to install a 2.25-megawatt ground-mounted solar system at Kohler’s headquarters campus in Kohler, Wisconsin. The clean power partnership will provide clean energy to power 580 homes per year. The Kohler Solar Field will be operational by the end of 2021.
“We are excited to work with Kohler to bring more clean energy to our customers,” said Zack Hill, Senior Project Manager at Alliant Energy. “Alliant Energy and Kohler share a mutual commitment to sustainability and renewable resources that will provide local economic and environmental benefits well into the future.”
