Neighbors Split Over Plans For Huge Solar Farm In SW Wisconsin

Plans for a solar farm covering more than five square miles in southwestern Wisconsin are being met with mixed reactions.  The Badger Holler Solar Farm will produce 300 megawatts of electricity — enough to power 77-thousand homes.  Approval from the Wisconsin Public Service Commission is still pending.  Opponents worry the more than one-million solar panels will ruin the rural beauty of that rural area.  Badger Hollow should be completed by 2023 and could mean more than one-point-one-million dollars in annual tax revenue for Iowa County.
