 storage of this project. Our share of the cost of this project is estimated to be approximately $775 million, with construction of the solar portion and battery storage expected to be completed in 2026 and 2027, respectively.

•We plan to enhance fuel flexibility at the coal-fired ERGS units.

•We, along with WPS and an unaffiliated utility, received PSCW approval to acquire and construct High Noon Solar Energy Center, a utility-scale solar-powered electric generating facility with a battery energy storage system. The project will be located in Columbia County, Wisconsin and once fully constructed, we will own 225 MWs of solar generation and 124 MWs of battery storage of this project. Our share of the cost of this project is estimated to be approximately $736 million, with construction expected to be completed in 2027.

•In April 2024, we filed a request with the PSCW to build five natural gas-fired combustion turbines capable of producing approximately 1,100 MWs which would be located at the existing OCPP site. If approved, the cost of this project is estimated to be approximately $1.2 billion.

•In April 2024, we filed a request with the PSCW to add seven natural gas-fired RICE units near the Paris Generating Station. The new RICE units would be fueled with natural gas and capable of producing approximately 128 MWs. If approved, the cost of this project is estimated to be approximately $280 million.

•In April 2024, we filed a request with the PSCW to construct the Rochester Lateral, which would supply additional natural gas service to the OCPP site. The natural gas lateral would be built in Kenosha, Racine, and Milwaukee counties. If approved, the cost of this project is estimated to be approximately $200 million.

•In April 2024, we filed a request with the PSCW to construct an LNG facility which would be located on the OCPP site. If approved, the facility would have a storage capacity of two Bcf and the cost of this project is estimated to be approximately $456 million.

•In September 2024, we, along with WPS and an unaffiliated utility, filed a request with the PSCW to acquire Dawn Harvest Solar Energy Center, a utility-scale solar-powered electric generating facility with a battery energy storage system. If approved, the project will be
