2. > According to Xcel Energy, the plan includes adding 3,430 megawatts of wind energy by 2030, hooking it up to the Upper Midwest grid at the Sherco plant in Becker, Minnesota.

   > The company is also planning to add 550 megawatts of grid-scaled solar energy and 600 megawatts of battery energy storage by 2030.

   Better than nothing, but these are still really small numbers by today standards never mind by 2030.
