[ADDRESS]

Dear Xia:

On behalf of WEC Energy Group, we are pleased to confirm the offer of employment
we have extended to you for the position of Executive Vice President and Chief
Financial Officer of WEC Energy. You will report to the President and Chief
Executive Officer and be named a member of the Office of the Chair. Details
regarding this employment offer are outlined below.

Base Salary
The annual base salary offered for this position is $710,000 payable in
accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices. Other compensation and
benefits associated with this offer are outlined below.

Annual Incentive Plan
In addition to your base salary, you will participate in the Short-Term
Performance Plan. Under this plan, your target award level is 80 percent of base
salary. Payment is earned when you and the Company meet pre-established
performance targets based on WEC financial performance and results against
certain operational targets. Since the plan has an upside potential of 210
percent of the target award, payments may range from 0 percent to 168 percent of
your base salary based on the degree to which the performance goals are met.
Participation in this plan is reviewed annually. Your 2020 award will be
prorated to reflect partial year participation.

Long-Term Incentive Awards
You will participate in the long-term incentive plan with a target compensation
level of 225 percent of base salary. Awards may be in the form of stock options,
restricted stock, performance units or such other form as approved by the
Compensation Committee each year. The current practice is to award 65 percent of
the target compensation level in the form of performance units, 20 percent in
stock options, and 15 percent in restricted stock. These weightings and the
forms of awards are subject to annual review. Annual awards have historically
been made in early January.

For 2020, you will receive long-term awards with a target compensation level of
225 percent of base salary effective as of the date you begin employment. The
weightings of performance units, stock options and restricted stock will be
consistent with those applied in January 2020 for other plan participants, which
are also referenced in the preceding paragraph. Standard terms, conditions and
restrictions will apply, including the performance period for the 2020
performance unit awards. Acceptance of the standard written terms shall be a
condition to the foregoing grants.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Signing Incentive
You will receive a special lump sum signing bonus of $100,000 to be paid on the
first regular payroll after you begin employment with the Company, which is to
be repaid should you terminate your employment with the company before your
first anniversary.

You will receive a one-time restricted stock award valued at $400,000 effective
as of the date you begin employment, subject to Compensation Committee approval.
One third of the stock award will vest on each anniversary of your employment,
resulting in vesting of all restricted stock on your third anniversary. The
award will become 100% vested upon your death or disability while you are
employed by the Company. The stock award will be subject to such other terms,
conditions and restrictions as are established by the Compensation Committee
pursuant to the Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan and separately set forth in
writing. Acceptance of the standard written terms shall be a condition to the
foregoing grant.

Relocation
You will be eligible for comprehensive relocation benefits commensurate with
those provided to Executive Vice Presidents of the company to assist you with
your relocation. As a condition of your employment, you will be expected to
establish your principal residence in the Milwaukee area within six months of
start date.

401(k) Plan
You will be eligible to participate in the company’s 401(k) plan. The company
matches 100 percent of the first one percent of participant contributions and 50
percent of the next 6 percent of participant contributions, resulting in a 4
percent match on participant contributions of 7 percent.

Deferred Compensation
At the next annual enrollment period, you will be eligible to participate in the
Executive Deferred Compensation Plan, which allows deferral of a portion of base
salary and incentive awards into a nonqualified account. You will have the
opportunity to select among two investment alternatives for any amounts you
elect to defer. One alternative tracks the value of WEC common stock including
reinvestment of common dividends and the other credits your balance at the then
current prime rate of interest which is currently 4.25 percent per annum. The
company matches amounts deferred to the plan consistent with the matching
formula applied to the 401(k).

Retirement Savings Benefit
The company offers a defined contribution retirement savings plan with an annual
contribution of 6 percent of base salary and annual incentive. Earnings on the
account will be determined by performance of the investment funds you elect.
Retirement income benefits are provided through both a tax-qualified and
nonqualified plan to ensure that IRS limits on compensation recognized by the
qualified plan do not impact the overall benefit.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Retirement Income Supplement
In addition, as soon as practicable, the Company will begin crediting $225,000
annually to a nonqualified account. The annual credit plus interest will
continue until the year in which you cease employment or reach age 62. The
balance at separation or age 62 will be frozen and will not exceed $3,000,000.
The account will be credited with interest at the annual average prime rate, not
to exceed 5%. Amounts credited to the account will vest at age 55, and will be
distributed at your retirement in a form elected by you at the time you commence
employment. Administration of this benefit will comply with Section 409A of the
Internal Revenue Code.

Medical and Dental Benefits
You will be eligible to participate in the medical and dental benefit plans
available to other management employees of the company. The company offers a
consumer-driven health plan with an HSA savings option. The plan is administered
through United Healthcare. Coverage begins on your first day of employment.
Dental benefits are available at a subsidized cost through a dental maintenance
organization or through a comprehensive plan.

Life Insurance
You will be eligible for group term life insurance at two times your base salary
at no cost. The company also offers an opportunity to purchase voluntary life
insurance.

In addition, you will have an opportunity to participate in an Executive Life
Insurance Benefit, which provides a benefit of three times your then current
base salary to your beneficiary if you should die while employed with the
company.

Long-term Disability
After six months of employment, you will be eligible for long-term disability
benefits, which would begin on the 181st day after you become disabled. The
company provides 60 percent base salary replacement at no cost to you. You will
have the option to increase the benefit to 66.67 percent of salary, with the
premium being paid by you.

Vacation & Holidays
You will be credited with 25 days of vacation. For purposes of future vacation
accrual, you will be treated as if your employment had commenced in 1998, which
provides with 22 years of recognized service under the plan. The vacation
schedule provides an increase to 27 days of vacation in the year you reach 25
years of credited service. Your allocation will be increased at that time and
will follow the schedule for management employees from that point forward.
Vacation eligibility for 2020 will be pro-rated based on your date of hire. In
addition, the company currently provides 10 paid holidays.

Financial Planning
You will be credited with an annual financial planning benefit of $18,000. You
will have discretion to choose the provider.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Executive Physical Program
The company provides supplemental payment for some preventative screenings if
the cost is not covered under the company’s medical plan. You may utilize your
primary care physician or another medical provider of your choice. Expenses
incurred through the Program are first submitted to insurance, and the remaining
balance is considered under this benefit.

Stock Ownership Requirement
Attached is a copy of the company’s current stock ownership requirements. At
your level you will be required to hold four times your annual salary in WEC
stock within five years of your effective employment date. There are a wide
range of holdings that contribute toward the guideline, including most notably
the restricted stock and performance units granted by the company as a part of
the long term incentive awards described above.

Plan Documents and Future Changes
All benefits described above which are further defined in plan documents are
subject to all of the terms in those documents which supersede any other
description. Management reserves the right in its discretion to change or
terminate all current benefit plans or practices and other policies and
procedures.

Other Terms
This offer is contingent upon the successful outcome of a criminal background
investigation and a pre-employment drug screen. The pre-employment drug screen
timing will be communicated to you at a later date and you will be expected to
comply with the screening requirement within 24 hours of notification. In
addition, your employment would be considered at-will; that is, you could be
discharged for any reason or no reason at all, at any time and without notice,
and likewise, you may resign at any time and without notice.

Please acknowledge the details of this offer and your acceptance on the line
below and return it to me. If you have any questions regarding the details of
this offer, please feel free to contact either of us or Lisa George directly.

Sincerely,
