Energy in Our Area: Connecting the Dots (Westby)
Why are utility bills going up? What’s driving new transmission lines? How are data centers and solar shaping energy in our region? At Energy in Our Area, local speakers will give short, 7-minute updates to help unpack what’s changing, from rising costs and new energy demand to transmission infrastructure and local energy options. Wednesday, September 16 from 6:30 to 8:00 pm at the Westby Area Performing Arts Center, 206 West Ave S, Westby. Free to attend.
