WEC Energy Group, Inc. is a U.S.-based holding company that provides regulated natural gas and electricity services, along with renewable and nonregulated renewable energy offerings. Headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and founded in 1896 (formerly known as Wisconsin Energy Corporation until rebranding in June 2015), the company operates through five segments: Wisconsin, Illinois, Other States, Electric Transmission, and Non-Utility Energy Infrastructure.
Its generation portfolio includes coal, natural gas, oil, and nuclear sources, alongside renewables such as wind, solar, hydroelectric, and biomass. The company also owns and operates extensive electric transmission and distribution infrastructure, distributes natural gas, and generates and sells steam. As a regulated multi-utility, WEC benefits from state-level rate oversight and a geographically diversified service territory spanning the upper Midwest and beyond, which typically provides relatively stable, predictable cash flows tied to customer rate bases.
